I have a 5.5" New Model Bisley Blackhawk in .41 Mag. I've been shooting Remington HTP 210 grain jacketed flatpoints and Grizzly Cartridge Company 265 grain hard cast wide flat nose lead bullets.
I acquired this gun to be a deer hunting pistol and bear defense gun around camp. I just went up this weekend camping and shooting and had a great time shooting the Remington HTPs. But they are kind of expensive and I was wondering if anyone is handloading something similar to that. I like the jacketed flat points for hunting so that is what I was hoping to get if I were to tool up to reload. I already reload rifle and pistol ammo so I just need dies and components to laod for .41 Mag. But the bullets I've looked at seem pretty expensive and I haven't had much time for reloading lately. If I can't find a way to save a significant amount of money I think I might just be better off buying a box or two of the Remington HTPs now and then. But I wanted to see what others are doing with their .41 Mags and if there is a way maybe I can handload something I could use for hunting but also shoot more of without breaking the bank.
I really enjoy the .41 Mag a lot, my .357 Mag gets more attention but I'd like to get more practice shooting hunting loads out of the .41.
Thanks!
