Question for JT and JimT.....

by Gunner , St Louis, Saturday, April 13, 2024, 21:11 (221 days ago)

Years ago Alliant stated no Blue Dot in the 41 Magnum, though never stated why, always figured it was a pressure problem.

The main powder I used for the 41 Special was Blue Dot with a Speer 200 grainer, never had any issues of any kind, but now I need to load some ammo for my Clements Custom 41 Blackhawk. Have messaged Alliant but no reply as of yet.

Your thoughts on this...should I use Blue Dot or try something else?? I have plenty of 231, as it is my go to for medium loads in several different calibers.

Thanks,
Gunner
