The one thing that really tempts me with a .41 Magnum is...
That a 240-260 grain bullet is heavy for caliber and, like you mentioned, the heavy for caliber bullets always seem to be much more accurate in every handgun I've owned. They also have better sectional density giving better penetration. So, a 245-260 bullet in a .41 at 1200 fps has about the same recoil as a standard 240g .44 load but with a .44, to get the same heavy for caliber bullet you need to go to the 300g class. As I get older I like to lift heavier weights and shoot milder guns:)
