Hey Bigcountry, I have the 460 also. I have never shot anything out of it but the 460 rounds. How much kick do you lose when you drop down to the 454. I've had mine for a while now but I have not really shot it a ton until last week. I had it zeroed in good but that was about it. I shot it almost everyday last week, and DAMN it wears ya down. I think if I'm gonna continue shooting it a lot, I'm gonna have to come down in the punch just a little. I'm gonna take it out and shoot it again on Sunday and see what I think after a few days rest.
I didn't mean to hijack the thread.
The 200gr factory load doesn't kick bad. Kicks like a hornady 300gr 454 load. Now when I handload, 300gr in the 460 brass with max H110, its get pretty harsh. I don't want to go up past 300gr. Mine shoots well with the factory 200gr load and 48gr H110 and 240gr XTP.
