Went to the grasslands today and finally got to test the 41 mag bullets with 2400. These were shot on the bags at 25 yards. Three different load. All these loads were good. But I think the 18 grain was the best. Iron sights no scopes here. What do you think Randy and Tom.

I would also mention those loads with that bullet feed like butter. They are great.

I'd like to know that also, since I use the Underwood 210 XTP and have chrono'd that. Be interesting to compare the two. :) How 'bout it Al, got a chrony? :)

Not real sure Slugnut. I didnt fire them over a chronograph.

Gene I do have one but usually to lazy to set it up. Ive never been that much into the speed of them I guess. I just like to know accuracy. If I get more loaded I will set it up and see if I can get the speed for you. Might be a while though. It won quit snowing here so a guy can even get out there.

If you do, here's a handy stats calculator to get those other numbers.
