The .41 Mag Blackhawk

I don't have a Blackhawk, although I've owned two Ruger Bisley 7-1/2 inchers over the years, but I do currently own both a blue Redhawk 5-1/2 inch and a Freedom Arms Model 93 6 inch. The FA is reserved solely for .41 Special loads, primarily 200 grain cast at 950-1000 FPS. I'll shoot full house .41 Mag loads out of the Redhawk from time to time, but I don't really need the full house loads for anything I do with the revolver and the .41 Special loads are a lot more fun.

It's a great cartridge and had Elmer favored a .41 Colt rather than a .44 Special, it probably would be a lot more popular today.
