Other than the “mass” of my X-Frame S&W, it’s a very enjoyable handgun! In the 460 it can be a very versatile handgun (cannon). Lightload 300 grain cast or jacketed for plinking, hard cast 400’s pushed fast (high sectional density for straight-line penetration) for large big game, and with creative handloading... can duplicate a 2 1/2”, 410 shotshell (full 1/2 ounce of shot). At relatively short range, the shotshell is pretty deadly on small game and snakes. Love my 460.... even more so while trailer/towed! grin memtb


You should not use a rifle that will kill an animal when everything goes right; you should use one that will do the job when everything goes wrong." -Bob Hagel
