And now for something completely different.
Uberti 1873 Carbine .44 Special converted to .41 Magnum and a Jager Mod Super Frontier Super Dakota .41 Magnum.
Maximum cartridge O.A.L. for smooth functioning in the Uberti is 1.570", so a short bullet or seating deeper than the crimp groove is required. I have 500 Starline .41 Special cases so I'll use those and not have to worry about C.O.A.L. I'm probably not going to run anything heavier than a 215 grain cast bullet and keep the velocity under 1000 fps in both guns.
Average velocity using 4.5gr of Trail Boss, 170gr SWC, Starline .41 Special brass is 915fps out of the 19 inch rifle and 717fps out of the 5 1/2 inch Super Dakota.
