The frame of the RB isnt long enough to accept the .460 cartridge.  They would have to design a new frame for it.  (Who knows, raging bull II?  raging bull magnum?  haha)

Plus if they did make a .460 it would overshadow their .454RB, which is one of their best sellers.  We discussed this more down a ways in the forum a while back.

I have seen the .480 Ruger RB, but never heard of one chambered in .460 (unless you want to call the .454 Casull a .460 Short)  ;D

roger460xvr, Have you looked at the Magnum Research BFR .460 ? They make excellent quality revolvers. I plan to order one in 45-70 some day.
