Nope, I'm not in denial, nor do I have DWAS, but it does attempt to infect me from time to time, but I try to remain strong.

I understood what you were saying about Confucius, but you didn't get the meaning of my correction ... go read it again.

I really like the Ruger Redhawks and found one in 41 Mag. File_001-3.jpegImage Enlarger

  

I just realized Dave and I hijacked this thread with "Chat Room-like" behavior and sincerely apologize to BowHunter. That is a fine looking revolver you got there and can't wait for a range report.

ANY Federal Large Pistol or Large Pistol Magnum primer

This was one of my questions .. glad I can use just LPP and not Magnum.  

Stinger,

The Large Pistol Primer vs a Large Pistol Magnum Primer is more an issue of which type of powder you use than which firearm you are shooting it from.  For example, when using H-110, I use Magnum Primers as it is a ball powder and from all I have read, harder to ignite and the manuals usually have H-110 with a Magnum Primer.  On the other hand Alliant's 300-MP also a HEAVY HITTER powder like H-110 does NOT require a Magnum Primer.  Not sure if that is what you were thinking about the Magnum Primers hope that makes sense to you.  

No Need for an apology seriously it is not an issue.  I am enjoying the posts and reading the thoughts and comments of others.  It is ALL GOOD.  

   

“We cannot but pity the boy who has never fired a gun; he is no more
humane, while his education has been sadly neglected.”

-Henry David Thoreau

“When some of my friends have asked me anxiously about their boys, whether
they should let them hunt, I have answered, yes – remembering that it was
one of the best parts of my education – *make* them hunters.”

-Henry David Thoreau

In my experience, I have never found the NEED for magnum pistol primers using the ball powders H-110 and W-296. Both perform equally as well with standard primers. No ignition problems at all. Of course, this only applies to all of MY .41 Magnums with 210 or 220 grain bullets.

I have never tried standard primers with H-110 so I can not really compare.  What I have read is that especially when shooting in cold or below freezing temps (A distinct possibility where I hunt) that ignition can be a problem.  This is what I have read and have no first hand experience.

That may be a key...I don't shoot in cold weather. big-grin

For me, if it's not 50 and sunny, I'm not going shooting.
