I have seen them for around $600 to $800 on gunbroker.com and auctionarms.com. There are usually some on gunsamerica.com as well. I lucked out a couple years ago. I got a stainless 445 Supermag with a couple of barrels for $650 including shipping and FFL transfer. I have subsequently converted a Marlin lever action to 445 Supermag. Quite a combo. I have since added a 4" VH shroud for $100. I am currently looking for a compensated 4" barrel and my set will be complete. I consider this setup to be the ultimate combination of power, versatility, and shootability. The 454 Cassul is a little more powerful, but way to tough on shooters and shootin' irons. The 445 Supermag operates at 44 Mag pressures.

Have you run any 445 loads from the rifle over a chrono? I've thought of making a 445 rifle on the Winchester M1894 platform.

I don't have a chronograph, but I am planning to get one. I have not had time to do load developement for either the handggun or the rifle. I am hoping to have time for that soon.
