I have had the 454 Casull, 480 Ruger, and the 500 S & W. I now own the .460 and have never looked back. I can shoot the 45 Long Colt, 454 Casull and 460 all in the same weapon. Can't do that with the others. I load for all 4 and there is nothing the others do that the 460 can't. I just enjoy the versatility of it. That and just how flat the weapon shoots.
