I reviewed the catalog, earlier this year and have it digitally on my computer. The exact wording is highlighted in red. Note the Factory-new Plus-P built to SAAMI Specs.

+P RATED FOR DUTY USE®
All Taurus handguns are engineered to accept a steady diet of factory-new Plus-P (+P) ammunition built to SAAMI specifications. This includes the Ultra-Lite hammer forged
aluminum alloys, Titanium, blue steel and stainless steel models. Rest assured, your Taurus will be ready, especially when you’re counting on it.

Now inspite of what the individual manuals for the guns say, they seem to say in the catalog's that the guns will be ok, with +P factory loads. Not Hand loaded +P stuff, which they seem to be totally unwilling to mention as allowed.

I called Taurus about a month ago on another issue and asked the "+P" ammo question. The company rep immediately stated that "all Taurus guns manufactured after 2005 were rated for +P ammo". I reminded him of the differences in the manuals and he again repeated the same to me.

TY Kind sir, for your phone call and support on this issue! If everyone will just know when their guns were made, and remember the 2005 time frame we are good to go. :???: want to bet this comes up again before the month is out. Maybe more than once.

Yeah, I know I have some +P JHP rounds in 124gr for my PT111, got them from my retired LEO son. He carried them in his Glock 9MM, before they changed over to the .40. Nice round.
We also have around the place some definite +P rounds for 357 that he carried in his BUG. He has them for his Ruger SP101, so I will probably try them out sometime later this spring. (We shoot outdoors, and most days either too cold, or if not cold, to darn muddy to shoot)

He was into all the +P rounds when he was working.

I am still trying to confirm which if any 45 LC (colt) +P rounds it is possible to fire from THE JUDGE, which is a tracker frame. Yeah I have another thread on that subject somewhere here.
