Mike has refuted his claims and proven what he (45D) has said on here many many times but you can't make an irrational person rational anymore than you can force a horse to drink.
All he has demonstrated is that a very massive open frame gun (Dragoon) has thus far contained some plus P pressure levels "not magnum" ( which by the way would test his equal strength contention) pressure levels, as efficiently as closed frame design. The test would need to be conducted with at least 500 rounds and then if the revolver survived the barrel cylinder gap re-measured to confirm that no stretch has been noted.
Also it must be remembered that none of the manufacturer's I'm aware of will advise or recommend plus P loads in their convertible cylinders and it ain't the cylinder their worried about .

He's shown 1860s shooting Plus P 45 ACP. That's not a dragoon so don't lie about what he's shown.
