Already have some of the gun magazine writers knocking on my door asking for our 41 Magnum loads for their articles.

The 41 mag does a lot of things right, but I feel like most handgunners go with the 357 or 44 mag. It's like the 16 gauge falling between the 20 gauge and 12 gauge.

I have a 6" s&w 657 and when I carry a revolver hunting that's what's usually in the holster.

Agreed. The Middle Magnum is often left out. I completely missed the original post. This is a cool gun. I had a Blackhawk with a 6.5" barrel and thought it was too long. The 5.5" should be a nice compromise.

I have two super blackhawks, a 45 colt and a 44 mag, both with 4 5/8 which I prefer to the longer barreled guns, but I wouldn't mind a 5.5" . Like you, I found the 6.5" barreled guns to be too long as well.

I had quite a few people at the Rickreall gunshow mention they had never heard of the 41 Magnum

I sell quite a bit of it, maybe not all at once but over time. Again another what was old is new again caliber.

I'd agree with this old is new again. I feel like the 10mm is gaining a new following among a new generation of shooters as well.

I've got quite a few friends that are gun people and have shot with a few others that were friends of friends. Other than shooting your .41 Magnum earlier this year, I've never laid eyes on one.

I had a friend that had one back in the day. Other than that as I do gun shows people ask about ammo and when enough ask about something like 41 Mag I buy a test fixture and start making that ammo. After a while when word gets out I become "that guy with the 41 ammo".

Do you have a website for the ammo you offer?

Surprisingly, I saw several 41 mags for sale at the Rickreal show this weekend.

They've been around forever, well at least since the 50's but it's easy to miss them if you aren't looking for them. Kinda like Glocks a 41 Blackhawk looks like all the other Blackhawks in a sea of Blackhawks. The Model 57 and 58 Smiths are less common but cool in their own right.

Yep, theproficientmarksman.com

We need to ramp up @oremike , there's some new 41 Magnums coming out next year.

I sold a bit of 41 Magnum at Rickreall, but mostly had people ask about the history of both the 41 Magnum and the 44 Special.

First handgun I ever bought was a 3 screw Blackhawk in .41 magnum back in '78. Love that round!

 

[titsonritz]

I remember back in the '70s when I was a little kid I saw a nickel plated 6" S&W M57 and thinking it was the most beautiful handgun I'd ever seen. Up to that point I had not heard of the .41mag but that 57 made a huge impression and I have been a fan of the cartridge ever since. It didn't survive my cartridge purge years ago and I settled on the more commonly popular .44mag but I've always wished it was more mainstream.

I'm on it. I've got 41 Mag wadcutters and SWC's and I'm planing on making JHP's before the next show.

Many 'Moons' ago I came close (very close) to buying a Marlin M94 in .41 Mag.

That would be a sweet match to the one in the OP.
