Big bore revolver need

[CDR_Glock]

I keep thinking I "need" well more of want a 460sw or 500. I was thinking the 460 so I can load 454 and 45lc in it. What's everyone's opinion? I do go into grizz bear country, but not regularly. This is more of a desire than a need.

I have magnum revolvers from 357 up to the 500.

I like shooting longer distances with revolvers. I planned to hunt with my 460. But for now, I’ve been carrying my 7mm-08.

If you want to get proficient, you’ll need deep pockets or start reloading.

Shooting these calibers are not cheap.

The 500 has a wide range of grain weights from high 200s to 700 grains. That is a wide range, plus you can shoot 500 special up to the magnum.

Of all guns, I Reload the 500 and the 454 Casull, the most of the big bore. I’ll shoot 50 rounds of 454 Casull and 35 rounds of 500 Magnums.

The 460 has the capability to shoot 45 Colt, 454 Casull and the 460 magnum. Again, these have a decent range of grain weights.

The above calibers usually have a 5 round capacity.

It is why I like to carry my Ruger Alaskan 454 Casull, more often. I shoot 50 rounds of full power rounds without issues. I’ve also practiced with 360 grain Buffalo Bore 454 loads. I’m very accurate with it, and I can shoot quickly.



I have since sold off my Ruger GP100s, for other interests.
