History of 41 Rem Magnum Ammo
The .41 Remington Magnum, designed by firearms icons Elmer Keith, Bill Jordan, and Skeeter Skelton, was introduced in April 1964 with two distinct loads: one for law enforcement and one for hunting. Accompanying this release, Smith & Wesson launched the Model 57 revolver, and two months later, the Model 58, specifically designed for police officers.
Featuring a .410-inch bullet in a rimmed, straight-walled case, the .41 Magnum cartridge measures 1.590 inches in length with a case length of 1.290 inches. This centerfire round uses a large pistol primer and can reach a maximum pressure of 35,000 psi.
