41 mag

rimfire72

Out of curiousity -- anyone care to share their pet "41 mag" accuracy load. I am not a competitive shooter. But I hunt with a 41 mag. Even for hunting purposes, I am more concerned with the accurate load rather than the fastest one. Shoot S&W 657 (6 1/2 in), FA M83(7 1/2 in) and FA M97(7 1/2 in). I understand that the max loads that the FA 83 will take might be dangerous in the S&W & even the 97. Over the years I have spent some time working out loads for each of these. Just wondering if any one has done likewise.

Anybody have an accurate load for this round using a cast 225gr SWC?
I'd prefer using 2400. Blackhawk with 6.5 bbl.

Max in my gun. Bullets were seated over the first driving band because the cylinder on the Taurus Tracker 425 is to short for the long nose Dry Creek Bullet Works bullet.

Cases were trimmed to 1.24" to allow the Dry Creek Bullet Works bullet to be seated to the crimping groove and still fit the Taurus tracker's short cylinder.
