    I just keep hearing that that Starline will make a run if they get a BO of 100K... But when I look on their website that caliber isn't listed...

    It is a special order only deal. If you will buy the whole run they will make it. We've had an open order for them for several years, we have not even gotten close to the 50K min requirement for us to have the 100K run made.

    Can .41 Spec be made by trimming .41 Mag? I have no interest but am curious why this has not been suggested before. I doubt that a group of .41 special enthusiasts could swing a GB for 100K.

    Yes, .41 mag can simply be trimmed to the .41 Spl with no issue.

    I got it done by myself.

    I've gathered that from preceding posts, but you must have had some confidence that you could sell the excess. Also, it takes a certain amount of risk tolerance to commit the required $$.

    I've refrained from commenting on the pictures in post 212, but that looks exactly like my S&W696 in .44 Special except for the number of holes in the cylinder and their size. I can see the attraction for the .41 special.

    At current prices for the 696, a conversion of the 686 to .41 special might be feasible.

    Not really, It was a couple of years before I even offered any for sale. I guess it is just a case of what it is worth to you, personally. I did finally after 5 or so years get all of my money back and end up with enough brass left for a lifetime. I had the conversion a couple of years before I got the brass and it has never had any but proper headstamped brass fired through it.

    Before they banned pistols in the UK I had a S&W M57 with an 8 3/8" barrel, nickel plated and a S&W M657 with a 4" barrel. It was my favourite magnum calibre. After the ban I had this built. It is an Armalon. It is built on an Enfield action. It uses Desert Eagle magazines. The action is shortened relative to the length of cartridge (I also have one in .45 ACP and .30 Carbine) and it is cock on opening with a match trigger. It is the only one that was built in .41 Magnum.

    . What a coincidence I just traded my 45 acp converted enfield for a ruger blackhawk in 41 mag which has drawn me to this thread. Cool looking rifle in 41mag

    all my molds cast boolits that are too long for my 4'' Tracker --sooo I have trimming brass for a while--- it works just fine-- normal load is 12.5 AA#9 --230 Saeco Keith-- case is 1.115-1.2-- using a .400 inch nose -- with the 410459 it has a .420 so really need to take them down to 1.110

    Local gun shop has a 41 blackhawk,used. I was headed to do some trading on it when I ran across a 32HR Single Six. Now that 41 is still there and after shooting the single six a while, I realize I miss having single actions! Good luck and enjoy your new blackhawk!
    I have the same issue with my TI Tracker, I have been using 41Special cases but I think I am going to reserve them for the Clements GP100 since they will not be available for a while!
    By the By, the 41 Blackhawk is at Kings gun shop (no relation) in Columbia TN.,,, Somebody please go buy it before I give in to the lust....

    Yep, and that 32 should be followed by a 20.

    Starline Brass is doing a run of .41 Special, their website says it is available now: https://www.starlinebrass.com/brass-cases/41-Special/

    Yield to temptation, guys. You may not get another chance. I got my order in for 1K, and I'll probably be kicking myself in a few years for not getting more.
