SShires,
Welcome to the Fire. I see your riding a goose egg here, so I’ll shoot this back up to the top for hopes of a 460 shooter to find. I’m sorry I can’t speak for the 460 S & W, but it seems like you’re well on your way with what ya got. I can tell you what has worked for me for my 500 S & W with an 8 3/8” barrel. I have loaded the Hornady 300 grain FTX bullets over 42.0 grains of Hodgdon Lil Gun, and it shot quite well…but sure was a devastating, stout load. I killed a few really nice bucks and a few doe with that load since 2006. I think it would have killed mastodons, wooly mammoths, and dinosaurs! I have since took a liking to using a Moyers 350 grain cast LSWC, over 16.0 grains of Hodgdon Titegroup. Shoots even better, groups better, burns waaaay less powder per shot, and still kills deer deader than a dimestore goldfish! I don’t do well with handgun scopes, so I have a first generation Bushnell Holosight on my 500, and have killed deer out to 105 yards with it, but most have been 35 to 85 yards. Best advice I can give you is practice as much as you can, and wear noise cancelling muffs for hunting! First 2 years of using my 500 I didn’t, and I swear to ya my ears might be still ringing from it! Hope someone with a 460 can give ya better advice for that caliber. Good luck and happy hunting!
