Not only is the 454 beyond the capabilities of the frame, the barrel mild steel isn't up to it either.

Not that I want one, but what about the actual .45 LC?

It still could... You just need to get yourself a SB2 frame and a 45Colt barrel and ream it!!

I have a 454 built this way as do a number of guys here. its a great, compact, LWT, powerhouse!

The 45LC barrel certainly can be. What fun in 45LC with 185 gr cast SWC over Trail Boss and what a devastator in 454 over H110 with 300 gr XTPs
