Default 41 loads

Marshall,
I've been shooting 41s for a long time now, and it's one of my favorite cartridges! I have two different 220 gr. semiwad molds, one a plain base and one a gas check, both by RCBS. One of my all time favorite loads is 9.0 gr. of Herco. Another is 16 gr. 2400. Neither is a max load, just be sure your gun is in good, safe shooting condition.
I remember several years ago, when one of the Shooting Times writers told about how he and Hank Williams, jr. had cut down some 41 Mag cases and called them 41 Special. They were shooting them in single action guns. I agree with Jelly, there's not much point in it.
Good luck!
Dick
