I know nothing about the maker but I can see it's a well made gun. I think you're jumping to the wrong convulsion about the loads listed in the annoying novel of printing on the barrels. Looks like a darn Ruger with all that BS on the barrels. It appears to me that they are giving you the "proof" loads that go along with "This gun has been tested twice". I can't imagine that they are recommended loads for normal use in the field.
