Knowing the gear ratio and the number of layers on the drum, one should be able to calculate the pulling capacity with a shear pin of a given shear strength.....
Gerhard probably has the formulas handy (=I won't bother digging for them).

One or more snatch blocks is the best solution for most questionable pulls IMHO.
