Veral! Wjhat bullet for the 460 S&W
« on: June 14, 2008, 12:56:08 PM »
What bullet would you recommend for the 460 S&W. This thing had a 14 inch barrel + 2 inch muzzle break. It is a revolver and I will be using it for elk. Any help is much appreciated!!

  Quite frankly, I'm totally unfamiliar with the 460 and it's power level.  However, real heavy bullets aren't required, but heavy does help accuracy.  A 340 gr would be great, driven at about 1400 fps if an LFN, which is the nose form I would recommend.  That weight is about optimum for the 454 when max power is wanted.  If you don't mind the recoil go heavier.
