Thanks, Scott! 41 mag is my favorite revolver cartridge... Shoots really flat, hits really hard. Very accurate. Not too small, not too big. Just right. Scott is discovering what the most discerning handgunners have known for decades: the 41 magnum is special!

The Model 57 was the first revolver I ever bought and is the last gun I would ever sell. It is one of the most useful all around revolvers. Lots of power (as shown in the video) but still very manageable recoil. I also have a Henry Big Boy Steel in .41 Magnum. It's great for whitetail at shorter ranges and the rifle is light and easy to carry. The .41 Magnum is the reason I started hand loading. Ammo price was twice that of the .44 Magnum. I'm glad to see others are still discovering this cartridge.

I remember in the 70s the 41 magnum was marketed to Law Enforcement as an ideal choice for Highway patrol and rural law enforcement, who are more likely to engage suspects at a greater distance. As you mentioned it has a flatter trajectory which gives it a longer point-blank range. It was also more likely to damage a vehicle's engine. They sold special rounds for vehicles.

.41 Magnum suffered the same problem as the 10mm. They were trying to create a better anti personnel round, but instead they made a hunting round. The differences between the .41 and the .44 mag are really too small to make a difference. Too much recoil, blast, and concussion for the average peace officer. Fine for the SWAT team, but not for Malloy and Reed. What they needed was something around .40 caliber, around 200 grns, around 1000 fps. Which was the light load for the 10mm or the standard load for the 40SW. Great to see one again.

10mm failed because of limp wristed weak agents who couldn't hand the recoil. Instead we got a 40 SW, but with modern day 9mm ammo makes it not worth it. I have had a Glock 20 since '92. My dad bought it when I was in High School. I carry a Glock 29 as daily. Touch my 10mm brass on the range you are going to be walking with a limp.

I'm a .44 Mag fan, but must admit that the .41 Mag does 95% of what a .44 Mag can do, with noticeably less kick. It's just a more controllable round. If there were a lower-priced, lower powered .41 'Special' round, to use for fam-fire and target practice, like the .44 Special for the .44 Mag, and the .38 Special for the .357 Mag, the .41 Mag would've had a much better chance of catching on. It's a great and versatile round that deserves more popularity and respect.

The .41 Rem Magnum is the bear defense cartridge most people have never heard of! Thank you for showcasing this gem of a cartridge. I've been shooting .41 Rem Magnum for years.

I load a mild load with a 210 gr hard cast bullet with 6.5 grains of Unique, Mine is the older version with a 6.5 inch and not the 6 inch barrels of today and has recessed cylinders.

Here's some interesting background on the caliber: The .41 Mag was originally designed to be a law enforcement cartridge, made to offer a cartridge capable of penetrating light to moderate cover such as automobiles. In fact, it's original name was the .41 Police. However, the revolvers S&W designed for it turned out to be just a bit too expensive for most departments, the frame a bit too large, and the recoil a bit too stout for many officers. It still has it's adherents, however. (I had a friend who carried one for years while working security in a large, open area where long shots were a distinct possibility.) However, S&W quickly realized that the .41 was in fact more suited to civilian use and rebranded it into their "Magnum" line.

Hey Scott, 41 mag is a really interesting caliber. My father had a S&W M-57 when I was a kid. I can remember him carrying it once when he was on a manhunt in the swamps in Southeast Missouri. He also carried it while deer hunting. Sadly it was stolen out of the house years ago. I know of one person here in Wyoming that carries a 41 mag. It was at one time the service weapon for the Border Patrol and a few other departments.

Scott, I have 5 of them. The model 58 was used by the Arizona state police, it was a fixed sight version of the 57. There is also a wildcat 41 special, most have been built as custom snubnose pistols. Desert eagle even made a 41 mag at one time. You should try some of the Buffalo Bore 265gr hard cast. I have hunted with one for years, they are a great round.

I own one of these s&w Model 57s in 4" nickel. It's a wicked caliber that always attracts a lot of attention at the range. I have shot a 10mm and 41 magnum both side by side and the 41 seems to pack more of a punch than the 10mm. The ballistics on a 41 magnum cartridge is what inevitably convinced me to purchase one. They do a number on 2 liter pop bottles and even better on 1 gallon milk jugs. I took mine to the range just a couple weeks ago and a few guys stopped me and wanted to know more about the cartridge.

I just stumbled into a model 57-1 that looks like brand new. It is my first .41 Magnum and I am really looking forward to shooting it. From what I have seen, it really is a shame that the cartridge isn’t more popular than it is. Can be easily loaded for everything from plinking to personal protection against 2 legged adversaries, to hunting large game to include deer and elk, and even for bear defense. I believe it will be my “Goldilocks Magnum”… ammo costs be damned.

Usually rimmed cartridges win the horsepower war, at the expense of being a slower process load/unload, but then again, with a bunch of horsepower the speedy reloading isn't really necessary most of the time.

My second firearm was a Ruger Blackhawk, 6.5-inch barrel, that I purchased in late 1979 or early 1980. I've always loved it. When I reloaded regularly, I found two loads: an equivalent of the old "police load" at around 950 fps (I think it was 7.5 grains of Unique), and a hot load with an unmentionable amount of WW 296 (same chemically as H110), 210 grains for each, but the police load was lead cast and the warmer load was semi-jacketed. Both were very accurate; resting over my knees, seated with my back against a post, I could hit a one-pound coffee can at a hundred yards 4 out of 6, and frequently 5 out of 6 (never hit all six). It's a great caliber; any white-tail deer hit by it will swear it was a .44, and its trajectory is flatter than the .44. However, ammo is hard to find for it, so those who love it most reload for it. Thanks, Scot!

Back in the early 80's, a friend of mine bought a .41 mag just like that. He knew I was headed to the Detroit Light Guard Armory gun show later that month, 6 hours drive from home here in Canada, and asked me to get him a full set of dies for him in .41 mag. I agreed. Found him a gorgeous set of RCBS Carbide dies, with shellholder and extra seating plug, bought it and brought it home. Went to the club that next week, and... he's sold it, because he only had a single box of 50 rounds, and couldn't get any extra brass for it, or bullets to load it. So he reneged on the deal. I still have them. Only ever opened them twice to look at. Not sure whether I consider them obsolete and worthless, or rare and valuable, but the lesson they taught me was: Cash up front for favors. He said the gun shot amazingly, by the way. Wish he'd kept it long enough for me to at least try it...

According to the late, great Skeeter Skelton, the original concept for the .41 was as a law enforcement caliber. But no one ever made a round that was more suitable for LEOs. The .41 is a great all around gun and caliber, another round that came from the same era was the Herters .401 Powermag. It was only ever chambered in the Herters Chief Marshal SA revolver though. That would be a great video if you can find one! One thing I've heard .401 Powermag owners doing is getting a Chief Marshal cylinder in .357 and rechambering it in .10mm since .401 brass is so scarce. And I almost forgot. For the filming of the first "Dirty Harry" movie, Clint Eastwood was actually carrying a 6.5 in Model 57. The production company couldn't get a Model 29 from Smith&Wesson because they were back ordered over a year on Model 29s.

It was sometimes hard to get ammo even back then. I knew two officers that carried the .41 mag. I carried a S&W model 19, because I could practice with .38 spl. at the range and carry .357 mag.
