New sidearm for the woods

[chongo469]

Thanks to a Hunting-Washington member I have a new sidearm to carry in the woods.....I purchased a Ruger Blackhawk .41 cal with a 6 1/2 in. barrel with Rosewood grips and an extra set of Pachmayr grips.....Can't wait to get out in few and go put a few rounds through her......

Yeah, I am gonna have to get some reloading supplies due to the cost of ammo for this thing.....may just try a different boxes this year to find what it likes and then do some reloading over the winter.......Even gonna try some Buffalo Bore in 230 gr. I am hoping to maybe hit a couple of places that have firearm restrictions this year, I'm sure this will get the job done....

That will be a great sidearm for the hunting woods.  I would definitely start handloading for it, as custom bullets as shown above will cost you an arm and a leg.

Congrats! The 41mag is a great round. You should defenitely start loading you own. High performance factory ammo is not cheap.

My favorite heavy load was a duplicate of the Federal 250gr CastCore factory load. Some 41's don't shoot the 265gr+ bullets well, and 250gr was the heaviest I could get good results from.
