I’ll be using factory ammo for the most part. Not much experience in handloading. Glad to hear there are some other .41 fans out there!

Thanks everyone, so far I’ve been able to find ammo around me. I got two boxes of leverevolution for 20 bucsk a piece l, and some 210gr Hornady hollow points for 17. I plan to do some deer hunting with it next season, any suggestions on good ammo for that?

Either well worked up handloads or the best JFPs you can find - and lots of practice - offhand once you are sighted in - none of this bench rest practice for hunting!
