Well i finally went and joined the Strange Magnum Club!
A second year production 3 screw Ruger Blackhawk came home with me this week. It looks to have spent some time in a holster but was shot very little. This will be my first rodeo with 3 screws and the .41 so any advice would be welcome. I understand Ruger offers almost no support for discontinued models, so if i ever need parts whats my best bet? Would most parts from the New Model Blackhawk work?
As for casting i am looking at the Lee TL design for plinking and would like a better mold for woods carrying and perhaps even deer hunting. NOE has a few good looking options. How useful do you guys find the hollow point designs? Good idea or not needed to put down a deer at modest ranges. Most of the sizing dies i am seeing for this are .410 that seems small to me. Are people sizing to .410 and having good results?
If you happen to have any extra .41mag loading equipment i would be interested. ( Dies, Molds, Sizers, etc)
Thanks for your time.
