I am not a fan of heavy bullets in the .41 ...

Mainly because I am old ... and I don't like getting beat up. And because I have used the 210 gr. XTP at around 1450 fps for so many years and shot so much stuff with it that I just don't want to use anything else.

My hunting load is the 210 gr. XTP and 20 gr. of WC820 (Military Surplus H110)

I was at the HHC with Gary and the crew in 2014 or 2015 .. I forget which ... shot a hog and a cow elk with that load. It worked just fine.

I've taken Mule Deer, Whitetail Deer, Javelina with it over the years and it has always worked well.

The heaviest bullet I shoot is the 230 gr. NEI flat point and I don't run it hard.

I have not tried heavier bullets. These two bullets do everything I want to do with the gun.

Sorry but I am not much help on the heavier bullets.
