No criticism taken at all. Just explaining my views. The 41 is a red headed step child to some, when in fact they are a diamond in the rough to the right people. Good luck to you with your quest in finding a suitable pistol cartridge in a rifle. Ruger (another passion of mine) makes a 44mag bolt action as well, that is a great rifle. I went as far as talking with Ruger R&D dept. several years ago about rechambering one in the 41 mag. It was on the table, but didn't get the support from their sales people. To bad, I would have been first in line.
