Ruger Alaskan in 454
« on: April 07, 2009, 09:40:55 AM »
Anyone have a Ruger Alaskan in 454 Casull.  I am thinking of trading my 454 Raging Bull for one and was wondering what recoil is like.  My partner thinks I will not be able to handle the recoil.

What Is A Veteran?
A 'Veteran' -- whether active duty, discharged, retired, or reserve -- is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to 'The United States of America,' for an amount of 'up to, and including his life.' That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country today who no longer understand that fact.

i don't have the short bbl . mine is 7.5 SRH . i have no problem with it . now to the point each inch of bbl you loose you lose some recoil also. so depending on your RB you might not have much change . Look up the weight of each gun and compare . of course grip effects recoil but they can be altered or changed .
