Description

The Buffalo Bore Heavy .41 Remington Magnum load sits in that sweet spot between the .357 and .44 Magnum—plenty of power without excessive recoil. This particular load pushes a 170-grain jacketed hollow point to 1650 feet per second, developing over 1000 foot-pounds of muzzle energy. That combination of velocity and weight gives you the flat trajectory and rapid target acquisition you need, whether you're in the field or handling serious defensive work.

What Makes the 170 Grain JHP Effective

The 170-grain bullet weight is lighter than some factory offerings, which means you get that velocity boost while still maintaining reliable expansion. The jacketed hollow point design is engineered for controlled mushrooming on impact, creating a wider wound channel and maximizing energy transfer without the overpenetration risks of solid projectiles. This matters equally for hunting medium game and for stopping threats quickly.

Built with Buffalo Bore's Field-Tested Standards

Buffalo Bore doesn't use fancy test barrels to generate published velocities—they chronograph rounds through actual firearms. That means the numbers you see are what you'll actually get when you pull the trigger. The brass casings are reliable and durable, ensuring smooth feeding and extraction even when conditions get stressful. Brass is also reloadable, which gives you options down the road if you decide to handload.

Why the .41 Magnum Gets Overlooked

The .41 Rem Mag has always lived in the shadow of its more famous siblings, but that's actually part of its appeal. It delivers considerably more power than a .357 Magnum with significantly less recoil than a .44 Magnum, and it does both with impressive accuracy. Experienced handgunners and hunters have long known this round as one of the most versatile revolver cartridges made—capable for everything from medium game to serious field defense. Buffalo Bore's heavy loading pushes the cartridge's inherent potential even further.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the 170 grain .41 Rem Mag compare to heavier factory loads?

The 170-grain load gives you higher velocity (1650 fps) compared to heavier 210 and 265-grain offerings, which means flatter trajectory and faster target acquisition. You still get over 1000 foot-pounds of energy and reliable expansion, making it a versatile choice for both field use and defense without sacrificing velocity for penetration.

Is Buffalo Bore's Heavy .41 Mag suitable for hunting?

Yes, this load works well for medium game like deer and hogs. The 170-grain JHP is engineered for controlled expansion that creates an effective wound channel while the velocity ensures good energy transfer. The .41 Magnum cartridge itself has a solid reputation among handgun hunters as a balanced option that's more powerful than .357 but more manageable than .44 Magnum.

How does Buffalo Bore test their ammunition?

Buffalo Bore chronographs their loads through actual factory firearms, not laboratory test barrels. This means their published velocities reflect real-world results from standard production guns. This approach gives you confidence that 1650 fps number is what you'll actually achieve when you shoot the round.

Can I reload the brass from this ammunition?

Yes, the brass cases are boxer-primed and reloadable. If you handload, you'll want to use a large pistol primer and powders like H110 or Alliant 2400. Make sure to use a heavy roll crimp to prevent cartridges from walking out of the cylinder under recoil.
