I read this article and learned alot about the 41.

does that mean I can put a sold sign on the .41 SW?

Thought you did??

Figured it would be a smithy that he wants. even though Taurus makes a few nice ones too!

Thought you did??

Yes he did

is not a 41 mag a 10mm?

is not a 41 mag a 10mm?

No

10mm has a .401 bullet diameter (i.e. same as 40S&W, but in a longer case). 41 Magnum has a .410 diameter, and (as is usually the case for rimmed revolver ammo) has an even longer shell. 10mm loaded hot encompasses the low to mid range of 41 magnum. Start loading 41magnum a little hotter, and it blows 10mm away. I like 10mm because you can have 15 rounds in an autoloading pistol, but 41Magnum is an intriguing caliber. It has nearly the power of the 44Magnum, but without nearly the recoil and muzzle flash. The only problem is how few guns were made in that caliber.

Well now what kinda fun is that?
