I'm not sure, but I suspect that anything much smaller than .470" could need a special extractor.
Yes, I used a cull staple to hold the cutoff open so I could photograph the region of interest. I have been working with Damnesia on those, but to date do not have a repeatable process for one critical phase of the operation.

Sam,Looks good!!! I may end up doing something similar with the 414.I had a Barrel bored and chambered by JES hoping it would clean up bad spot in the chamber area but it didnt!! So i went and rechambered it in 410 and that cleaned it up. I have to send out another barrel to JES before i can continue on my project. Don

I may change my mind about not firing it, as I can take a junk barrel and hog it out such that the 410 bullet will make it through. The primary purpose of firing it would be to demonstrate that the recoil barricade works as believed. I personally have no interest in a 99 chambered in 41 mag, but I never asked the question, "Why bother?" I bother because I learn. The things I learn can be transferred to other situations, other calibers, etc where it means a lot to me or someone else.
gnoahhh suggested some time ago that I write one of my technical notes on the cartridge handling characteristics of the 99. I have not done that yet because I don't think I know enough yet. Although I have done around 40 customs, I still get surprised. This experience has brought me closer to being willing to start writing.
I have removed the 41 hardware from the testbed rifle, but it is bagged and tagged so once I bore a barrel I could in a few minutes assemble a functioning rifle and go shoot it for closure.

Is there a short cartridge that does click your trigger? Experiment with that
