41 mag plinkin load

[BigAl52]

Went out to the grasslands today with some test loads. Both loads shot well but the Universal Clays load was better. The other load being 10.6 of HS-6. So far just about all of the low power loads shoot very well in my 41 Henry anyway. Here is a target shot with the Universal load at about 30 yards.

Al, Universal is fast becoming one of my favorite powders. How did the X-treme bullets handle the .41 mag velocities? Probably mid loads?

Nice shootin' Al ! Yeah it works out that way sometimes with the milder loads be good groupers and fun to shoot.

Nice shooting there Al.
My 41 still hasn't seen a jacketed boolit.

Tom Xtremes bullets are great. Ive never had any issues with them and for the 41 and plinkin I like them alot. Most companies only offer SWC and this flatpoint feeds and shoots good. After shooting these for group I went to bustin clay pigeons on the bank. My neighbor was with me and he was amazed at the accuracy of the 41 and he liked Fortys sight insert.

Al, I pulled mine out this morning to shoot in between the different 38-55 loads.
Couldn't get it to group for squat, checked and the scope mount is loose.
Took a bit to figure out. yeah little slow some days.

I have good luck with Universal powder. Nicely done! Glad you got out to shoot!

My 41 is dialed in especially with Fortys sight insert. I love shooting that gun and its the only pistol caliber levergun I have left. Im on to simple things and I like that alot.
