I finally got around to making up some .41 Specials. Using John Taffin's work as a baseline, I trimmed some .41 Magnum brass back to 1.160", loaded it with 7.0 grains of Unique behind a 200 JHP. In the photo, the .41 Special is in the middle, a factory .41 Magnum is on the left, and a .38 Special is on the right.
David that should be a very accurate load. The case volume seems to be just about right. Make sure to post your accuracy results. What length cylinder are you going to use.
