Alberta Canuck.41 cast bullet sources?
I want to buy some hard cast LFN or LFRN .41 Mag bullets to try out in my new toy. Anyone able and willing to recommend a preferred supplier?

ramrod340Have not tried their pistol bullets but have used them for big bore rifle (375+) and had great luck.

Alberta CanuckThanks Craigster....
I've used a lot of Berry's .350 bullets in my .45-70 and they work great there. Just never even thought of them for pistol bullets.
Will give them a try.
Oh well

DIXIEDOGI've had great results with the bullets I've purchased from Mike at Master Cast Bullets....they are a good bullet accuracy wise and they don't lead up the barrel as badly as alot of cast bullets do

Alberta CanuckThank you for the info on MasterCast bullets. Having not bought any commercial unplated cast bullets since the 1950's when I used to by some Dybro #6s for my .357, I don't personally know which of the modern ones are good stuff and which are mainly advertising hype. That's why I asked you folks. Figured I'd get the "straight Poop" here....

larrysAC, I would second Remrod340's suggestion of Montana. They provide bullets of specific sizes, at your request and both with and without gas checks for the 41 mag. I have found all of the other "generally available" 41 mag cast bullets to be too soft fror the three of my 41s. The leading was bad. I also found Cast Performance to be quite good. I will admit to not trying the Berry's.

BigBI will second what larrys said about Cast performance bullets being quite good. They are available at Graf or Midway.

Alberta CanuckThanks to you guys for drawing my attention to Ramrod's post. Somehow I missed it completely.
Thanks Ramrod, for the link. Will have to give those a look-see also.

TEANCUMI used to be a big buyer of the Oregon Trail Lazer Cast bullets but with a terrific price increase during the Obama scare days I've moved on to other suppliers. Lazer Cast just didn't seem to adjust the prices back down after the big scare.
All of the manufacturers listed above should do you well and after a sample of each you'll find the best for your shooter.
