The .451 Detonics Magnum was a powerful, custom cartridge developed by Detonics in the early 1980s, aiming to significantly increase the .45 ACP's performance. It utilized thicker .45 Winchester Magnum brass, cut down, to handle much higher pressures, achieving a 30% velocity increase. Detonics pistols like the Scoremaster were modified with dual recoil springs and buffers to manage this power. Despite its technical success, the cartridge failed commercially due to a lack of factory ammunition, paving the way for successors like the .45 Super and .460 Rowland.

Brownells Gun Tech Steve Ostrem explores the .41 Magnum cartridge, often considered the "middle child" of magnum revolver rounds. Developed in the early 1960s by Elmer Keith and Bill Jordan, it was intended for different purposes: Jordan envisioned a law enforcement load with a heavier bullet than the .357 Magnum, while Keith aimed for a powerful hunting round. Smith & Wesson and Remington produced a full magnum version, launching a 210-grain bullet at 1,500 fps, which necessitated a large, robust N-frame revolver. While too heavy for patrol officers, the .41 Magnum proved to be an excellent hunting round, comparable to the .44 Magnum in bullet weight and velocity. The video also touches on handloading capabilities, allowing for even heavier bullets up to 265 grains for increased penetration, and encourages handloaders to consider a .41 Magnum revolver if found at a good price.
