Tossing my hat in the ring if I may...

EK developed the Mag using the Special case and IIRC 2400, so I'll step out on a limb to say that you could in fact load up the special to magnum territory. This is to say nothing of a hot load of a fast powder.

A word of warning...

Elmer went through quite a few pistols doing this! Not a healthy endeavor.
