41 mag load

Boomerang
Does anyone have any favorite loads for the .41 mag that will both feed well and shoot accurately out of a Marlin FG? I just acquired this rifle and am really looking forward to using it for hunting deer and dispatching wild dogs. I prefer accuracy over maximum power. Thanks in advance.

Added information:This rifle has the micro groove rifling, not the ballard cut for cast bullets. I was wondering about either Corbon loads or hand loads. I am not opposed to maximum loads but accuracy and maximum power do not always go together. I desire at least 2 moa for the load.

    Not sure about the Marlin FG, but I expect a range report in the genral forum after you start shooting it. I would probably start off with a Winchester Plat. tip 270 grn factory load and go from there. Good luck.

    Good luck out there.

    Remington makes a good 210gr semi jacketed soft nose that should do the trick. [8D]

    Here are 66 different handloads for the .41 Magnum.

    You can sort them by powder manufacturer or bullet weight.
