405 win
« on: December 08, 2009, 03:07:34 PM »
Hey Guys, can a 405 Winchester use 41 mag pistol bullets, both jacketed and cast? If so it would kind of be like a smaller version of the 444 Marlin.  I know Hornady makes a nice 300 gr spire point, but 41 mag bullets for plinking and smaller game would make it more versatile. Thanks
