I owned a .41 mag in a 10" contender. Liked it but it was not a 44 and hard to find components for reloading. It was more gentle to shoot than a 44 and had lots more energy than my 357's. I know that there are followers, just like the Hi-power followers. A few years ago, I decided that I had too many rifles and pistols that did the same thing, so I traded and sold some and my .41 was one of them. Now that I am older, probably should get a .41 and unload my .44's because i shake my wrist with most every shot of the mighty 44.
