As usual, I failed to express my point plainly. I was not concerned about the weight of the guns themselves, but rather the comparitive performance between the two calibers (.41 Mag & .44 Mag) in...
It seems (from my reading) that when going down from a 6 (ish) inch barrel to a 4 (ish) inch barrel length, the .41 gives up less of its velocity than a .44 mag.

Nobody is mentioning the Finnish M-39 variant. However mine is a Sako and it shoots great!
Groo, excellent point! Sometimes we get so into the technical side of things that we forget or ignore basic truths!
Just another reason that I love Cast boolits with big meplats!

WOW! You guys are all so neat and have such efficient designs!
I'm embarrased to post pics of my loading room now.:-?

Thanks Joe, is the 4064 powder bulky enough to fill the cartridge case or do you utilize a filler?

Thank you forarmed! That was exactly what I was waiting to hear! I've never thought of dacron!

Ok I'm convinced...no fiberglass.
What about my basic premise? Do you guys think I might be mistaken about the cause of my variances being the excess case capacity?
Forum: Our Town
Ok, but I find it hard to believe that fiberglass is harder than the barrel steel. But if fiberglass is not a good thing to use, thanks for letting me know. Do you guys have any other ideas?

I'm hoping to tap into the Brain Trust here at Cast Boolits for an issue I'm having.
I have a .30 calber mould that Buckshot applied his artwork in hollow pointing to.

I have my new set also. This has proven something that I suspected...my Ruger Blackhawk in .41 mag has 2 tight cylinder throats.
