Magnum cartridge

You can't load it.

Um, and I found that Magnums with suppressors, there's only one way to shoot them accurately, and you have to recoil manage.

You have to make sure that, that it's, it's a bigger impulse, it's a slower impulse, but you gotta make sure that recoil impulse is in line.

Mm-hmm.

There was a vast difference in quality with these two sets of grips.

Now, the ones that I bought for the Ruger, originally I bought those for my 41 Magnum.

And if you guys watch my 41 Magnum tribute build video over on YouTube, I showed off these grips.

and talked about them, and I was going to put them on that gun.

I still had them sitting here on the bench.

41 magnum were, you know, 160 grain, 150 grain, 160 grain to 260 grain is about, you know.

And that's kind of an interesting note there.

You'll hear guys that love the 41 Magnum, and they'll be like, oh, there's only 19 thousandths difference between the 41 Magnum and the 44 Magnum.

A 9 millimeter has almost the same amount of energy.

It's only like 50 to 70 feet per second less than a 357 Magnum.

Energy is not the problem.

What's the moon

clip? Pressure is the problem.

So like when you make a small revolver in 38, like you're talking about it like being as effective as .357 Magnum, which means that the cylinder has to be beefed up.

The frame has to be reinforced to take it, and so it becomes a much more expensive option.

Like if you look at – The Ruger LCP.

Here's the next question.

Have you seen the Peter Soley double barrel .44 Magnum side-by-side rifle? The answer is I saw a YouTube thing on it.

I'll be honest with you, I don't think it's the most useful .44 Magnum rifle you could get.

You're probably better off with lever action or anything else.

But, man, do I want one? Now, I say I want one.

I would choose the lever gun over.

If I needed a gun to carry around and I might have to do something serious with it, I would choose the lever gun.

Okay, next question is, is, have you ever shot .38 Super in a .357 Magnum revolver? .38 Super ammunition in a .357 Magnum revolver? No, I have not.

So let's do the last two revolvers here.

So this one here, this is a Ruger Blackhawk, 4 and 5/8 inch 41 Magnum.

Brand-new gun.

This gun has not been fired yet.

The whole...

So the reason I picked this up is because I showed you guys and told you guys about the Model 57 that I bought, and it's a super cool gun.

I'm really looking forward to working up some 41 Magnum loads and that kind of stuff.

But I realized that I wasn't gonna give the 41 Magnum a fair shakedown if I'm not gonna carry it.

I didn't know we were gonna do this, but if you go over to guntalk.com/win, we're giving away a revolver this month.

It's a Taurus Raging Hunter .44 Magnum with 200 rounds of Nosler ammo.

Go check it out, guntalk.com/win.

We'll be right back.

Well, it, you know, it oughta start with a four anyway.

You know, I, I like 'em all, uh, and, and all three of 'em are, are valuable, good-using cartridges.

I've probably done more with the .44, .44 Special and .44 Magnum-

Mm-hmm

Hey guys, let's talk about .38 Special projectiles, by extension .357 Magnum as well.

As a self-proclaimed ballistics nerd, I was kicking around on different cartridges.

I was on the Wikipedia page for .38 Special going through the history of it, and it was quite extensive.

They're not the only one, but they're very good.

This brings us up to the modern era.

In this, we see the .38 Special spanning from black powder days, very crude lead bullets, up into fully modern, good performing hollow point And of course you get the .38 Special, you get the .38 Special Plus P, and you get the .357 Magnum for somebody that wanted to go even hotter.

And obviously the .357 Magnum came out in a more modern era.

But you're going to find many of the same projectiles.
