Interesting.

Thanks for the write up Randy! I can see how one would be a little less than amused by your chrono findings with the big Smith. You could have a much more nimble FA83 or BFR in 454 casull and get about the same performance.

curious, is your smith a performance center or standard offering?

definitely sheds light on how important that cylinder gap is!


The .454 doesn?t have the case capacity to compete with the .460.


I understand that, but with the actual velocities Randy M was showing above with the Smith XVR, you are in the 454 casull realm. His BFR is posting the velocities that one would expect with the much larger powder volume


I followed you on that. And that's exactly why it wasn't acceptable. I didn't buy a 460, so I could shoot a 454...
