Default RE: Ruger Blackhawk question

While I can't say I am the worlds biggest .41 Mag fan, I would say I am a huge fan. And finally life has moved out of my way long enough for me to get one. I just ordered a 6.5" Blackhawk. My only question is according to the Greenhil Formula at a twist rate of 1:20, the "optimum" bullet would need to be 1.26" long. I can't even begin to think what it would weigh. What, if any, seems to be the "sweet spot" as far as bullet weight is concerned?
I will be reloading eventually. That is as soon as someone buys my 30-06 Model 70. The boss has no issues with me buying a handgun or any guin for that matter. BUT only after I sell the ones I don't shoot very often.
