Gets my vote as the most underrated revolver cartridge...

For handloaders. Wide selection of jacketed and cast bullets.

Remember they make that gun in 45 Colt from the factory.

I've got one headed to Gary this week to build a 44-40 or 38-40 on.

I'm going with a 5-Shot Cylinder for strength, but stronger than a COLT in 6-Shot configuration.

Thanks Huey. A 401 GNR cylinder would fit?

like the 41 GNR, so a standard size 6 shot cylinder is fine for it. No work on the frame is required.
