i too am glad to meet another 41 GNR shooter -- 5.5"blue Redhawk-- I have tried a lot of AA#9 in mine and with lighter to normal weight bullets it works well-- if interested let me and give you my loads - once you pass 240gr --296 works better -- I have used alot of Gary's load and taken some deer with it -- my son has a GNR#2 and i am wqnting a .410 but wanting does not hurt me
