I think it's a neat "little" gun, but I'll bet full house .454 Casull loads are nothing short of BRUTAL. No thanks. I'vehad the displeasure ofshooting the .500 S&W with the 4" bbl, and even with the lightest 325gr loads and thebreak it'sa real SOB.

As much as I like the .454 Casull cartridge, I question the logic of making a revolver with such a short barrelin such a powerful cartridge. Mastering a full sized SRH is a tough task, mastering the Alaskan would be much worse.

However, if you like the gun and can shoot it well, then congrats on your new revolver.
