For the 41 Mag to do it all you should have 2 powder types. The 1st a faster preferably clean powder for lighter target loads & mid level loads. I use Hodgdon Universal for this pourpose. The 2nd type of powder would only be needed if you wanted to push heavier bullets at a good speed, for hunting & such. This would be a slower handgun powder. The biggies in this dept. are Hodgdon 110(Win 296). There are others but those are my favorites in the Hodgdon line. If heavy bullets for hunting were not planned you could skip the slower powder. You would want a firm crimp & a magnum primer with 110/296 powder. I also use the 'Berry's plated' bullets for general shooting. With a lighter charge of Universal they are a pleasure to shoot in my 44 mag. The site beartoothbullets.com has good info on the heavier cast bullets. It is easy to set up loads for your 41 mag that go the spectrum from light target to max full house loads.
