Okay Gents....I am dying to pick up a SA Ruger for both recreational use and hog hunting. You may have seen some of my other posts where I address the 45LC and 44mag. Here's my conclusions: being a bit "recoil sensitive" to the 44mag, I image I'll be recoil sensitive to any 45LC capable of traveling 1000 fps or more. I can handle hot loads, I just don't enjoy shooting them. And the reality is that I like to practice with what I hunt with. If I'm going to hunt a hog with 45LC, I'll want to practice with hotter LC loads.
Which bring me to my point....how about the .41mag!? I've never shot/handled one, but it appears that it can almost mimic the ballistics of a medium powered .44mag, is flatter shooting, and has...what!...about 25% LESS RECOIL! Am I correct? And if so, is my decision to obtain a Ruger SUPER Blackhawk in .41mag the right choice?
Lay it on me......
