Jul 17, 2014

Somewhere along the line I just completely forgot this year marks the 50th year of the .41 Magnum. Many years ago this became my favorite revolver cartridge and since this round is the favorite of many here, as well as the guns that shoot them, I would like to start a tribute thread not just to the cartridge and the S&W guns of this era that shoot the round but if acceptable to the Moderators all guns that shoot this fine round...

So if you have pics, stories or just love the round and the guns that shoot them please chime in....

My first .41 Magnum was a nickel Model 58 bought about...

Okay guys, here is your chance....post your photos, stories, and favorite loads for the unloved beast that is the Smith & Wesson Model 58.

I have been a fan since I held one the first time...many months later I finally came to own 2, now I am totally sold on them...how about y'all?

Here are my two, both are first year of production. The blue one gets carried while riding the fence lines, the nickel one is on BBQ detail

Have had four of the 3" 657s over the years...good shooters but take some learning...

If you don't reload, take a look at Lost River Ammunition. Mac is a member here and makes two great .41 loads...one target and one general purpose...

Last count I had 29 .41 revolvers (down from 40), 2 lever guns (down from 4) and a 10" TC handgun and 16.5" carbine....

The 4" guns are my favorite...




3" guns shoot well...




Enjoy....Bob
