You could absolutely be right. I thought the .41 mag was going to be a good solution until I tried it. I still have it, but I don't use it for anything.

Always liked the ballistic values of that .41 mag round.

If that was a Ruger you'd probably have a buyer here :supergrin:




I know you said it was too loud, it's the nature of the beast, as I think others have said.
Anything bigger in a pistol format is not likely to be any quieter.

I was pretty surprised at the noise of the .41 mag. After that experienced I did some research where the blast from the cylinder gap was made visual. It was pretty dramatic.
I once took 4 shots at a predator with my 10mm, and it started to make my ears ring. A bullet of similar weight with similar speed out of the revolver was SO much worse with just one shot, it kind of scared me.
My daughter likes the revolver, so she's keeping it. She wears one of the safe shells on a necklace. Sorry, I don't think she would sell it.:tongueout:

I've got an old model Blackhawkm in 41 Mag. I love it.

It seems to me the OP just wants a .45 Win Mag and is going through a bunch of gymnastics to justify it. If you want one, buy one. I've never understood people that say things like, "I really want XYZ gun but I don't have a need for it so I can't buy one." Don't get me wrong, I understand not buying a gun due to finances but if money isn't an issue why not buy what you want?

Totally valid point. If LAR made the Grizzley in a double action configuration I would have got one a long time ago.

Ruger is coming out with the LC480...

Why is double action a requirement?
