But there really are 41 specials. Several gunsmith have built 41 specials on Ruger flattop frames and eve a few 41 special Single Six five shot guns exist. I believe you can even buy 41 special brass now. Remember the 41 long colt, that was a 41 special if I am thinking correct. I do know that my Ruger 41 magnum 4 5/8 inch barreled revolver will hit a chest size target at 140 yards shooting a 210 grain bullet in front of 22 grains of H110. Did I meantion that I hold dead on? I know my 44 magnums will not do that with like bullets but the old 41 will do it every time. To anser the original question, I choose the 41 magnum because it makes others mad and they just wonder why not a 44!! Now, I would never choose the 41 if I didn't roll my own ammo. That factory stuff is way too expensive.
