That's a very good option.

Like Sawin I pack my EDC. It is a little different though... I carry a Glock 29sf... nothing compares to the fire power it packs. 10+1 of 10mm ammo that makes as much energy as a 41 mag (~700lb/ft+). Does not get any better than that in a handgun imho.

Not to bash your 10mm, but it won't even come close to a hot .41 mag load. Buffalo Bore lists a few 10mm loads at just over 700 ft. lbs. of energy. They also list several .41 mag loads at over 1,000 ft. lbs. of energy.

Don't get me wrong, the 10mm is one of my favorite semi-auto cartridges and is an excellent option for a "woods gun". But to compare it to the .41 mag is unrealistic.

No, it is not a "hot" 41 mag. In its hottest form the 10mm is similar to a mild 41 mag. I would much rather have 11 rounds of mild(If 700 lb/ft can be called that) that I can easily control in rapid fire. YMMV.

When we hike in to camp!
I carry a 1911 with 2 extra mags, and have an AR-7 22lr in my pack.

-21 rds. of 45
-2 10 rd. mags tuck away in the rifle, I also carry 75 rds. in an old pill bottle.

The .45 is definitely for 2 and 4 legged critters!

Just my .02

This is what I typically do... minus the .38's.
