Back in the 80s, a deer hunting buddy used a S&W stainless
.41 Rem Mag revolver with a 6 inch barrel. Never thought it was not
enough gun.

"Your #40127, however, was not introduced until 1963 (along with PB
WC #41026, RN #41028, and SWC #41032) for the new .41 S&W Magnum
(using the #...27 cherry number recycled from a obsolete .25 caliber
hollow point design from the 1890's). It was dropped as a regular
item in 1974, but was available on special order through 1978. It,
and #41026, which had the same life-span, were primarily for
paper-punching, which was not the preferred use of the Maggie; the
other two lasted longer: the RN until 1979. and the SWC until 1991."

The SAECO #415 has a tapered shank, which goes from .397 at
the top, to .393 at the bottom.
17 Oct 2016 - After trying the .410P1 (41T) with my SAECO
#415, it is quite apparent that the 41T checks will work
only on well formed shanks. If the edges are rounded, the
gaschecks will not grip. Even with sharp edges, gaschecks
sometimes spin on the shank. Presently checking on a thicker
gascheck for .41 Rem Mags. Jacketed Bullets: NOTE: Not all that many,
and some have velocity limits, due to their design for
pistol velocities. So the .414 Super Mag might pop one out
faster than the speed which the bullet can hold together at.

.41 Magnum and
.41 Special in the .414 SuperMag? Rescued with Internet
Archive, original HERE The reason that we and the 2
previous manufacturers of the Dan Wesson design revolver do not
recommend using the shorter cartridges in the SuperMag revolvers
(i.e. .41 Special and .41 Magnum in the model 414 or 7414) is to
protect ourselves from any potential liability resulting from
someone trying to get SuperMag performance from the smaller
cartridges and blowing up the revolver and causing injury to
themselves and anyone nearby. The .414 SuperMag is capable of firing
the .41 Magnum and the .41 Special cartridges, as well as the .414
SuperMag cartridge. Please observe the following two cautions:
1. Do not attempt to load either the .41 Magnum or the .41 Special
cartridges with the intention of gaining SuperMag performance from
them, but rather follow very strictly the safe recommended loads in
the powder, bullet or cartridge companies' reloading manuals;
2. Be sure to thoroughly remove any residue build up in the chambers
from the shorter cartridges before attempting to load the longer
SuperMag cartridges into the chambers, or you will be jamming them
into the residue and will either not be able to fully insert them
into the chambers, or will experience difficulty with extraction of
the empty brass.

Archive, original
HERE We have our
ammo, brass and load data on this website (click on “Ammo &
Brass” on the main menu and either “Ammo & Brass” or “.414
SuperMag Load Data” on the submenu). We stock 20 piece boxes of
170 gr JHP (part # 414 SM 170 $24.41) and 220 gr FPJ (part # 414
SM 220 $24.79). We also stock brass in 100 piece bags (part #
414 BRS 100 $38.00), 250 piece bags (part # 414 BRS 250 $82.50)
and 500 piece bags (part # 414 BRS 500 $140.00). .41 Magnum
carbide dies work fine for reloading .414 SuperMag brass. We
recommend the use of Federal 210 rifle primers, which give a
much more complete burn with the increased powder capacity of
the .414 SuperMag cartridge. .414 Super Mag Loading Data Through
