Favorite .41 loads?

Post by JayZuv » Fri Aug 09, 2019 1:08 pm

I know a few have been posted on here already, but what’s everyone’s favorite loads for the 41 mag? I’ve been having success with a 210gr Sierra jhp over 21grs of h110

For a general all around target load I am using Missouri Bullet 210g SWC over 8.0 grains of Unique-this load works well in my BBB .41 mag Carbine and Ruger Blackhawk-

Dont have a high end load for mine but if I did it would be with 2400. Ive tried the 296 H110 thing and just havent had any luck. Unique has worked good for me at the lower end. Also Universal Clays is a good one.

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

I looked up some of my data
210 gr swc & 20.5 H 110 in both the BH & BBS
Got some 280 gr. FNGC from BTB, & 17.5 H 110 in the BBS.
And the best factory ammo by far is a 250 gr Cor-Bon.

I recently picked up a 270 gr mold, and I have done a little testing but I don't know what I've done with those notes.

Thanks all, sounds like mixed reviews on the whole h110 thing. Trying to load a pretty potent deer cartridge, so I figured that would be the way to go. Little bit more tinkering with it and we will see what it can do come November!

Get some 2400 and I bet you will find one.

For those that don't like H110/W296... try Accurate 4100 or Ramshot Enforcer (both the same powder, with a different label, like 110 and 296).

I use it for high intensity loads in my Blackhawk where it gives just over 1,500 fps and great accuracy from the 6.5 inch barrel at a little under the max load recommended by the powder manufacturer... that is with 210 XTP bullets.

For plinker loads I use whatever I've got with some leftover powder in it.... Unique, Power Pistol, Titegroup, been burning up some Accurate #9 too.
