No doubt this is a Heavy Hitter Powder. Recoil was STOUT and Muzzle Blast was SUBSTANTIAL. Still all cases ejected fine and Primers were fine. Alliant Reloader Manual did not have data for this powder in 41 Mag, but I did find data from the October 2011 issue of Handloader Magazine. My velocities are significantly higher than what was reported in the Magazine. (I may Test again double checking the ZERO/calibration on my scale) 23 grains would be my MAX load for this and 22 seemed a better load with insignificant Velocity difference when compared to 23 grains.. Doubt I would reload this powder past 22 grains again.

“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
