The sad thing of it is so many 454s, 460s, 500s, etc. are languishing in their owners’ safes only to be talked about as they shoot their .22s!
Definitely true for those who are shooting factory ammo. It's VERY expensive.

As a reloader, I shoot all my big bore guns regularly and I enjoy creating many and varied loads for them. You need to be able to shoot a gun a lot to become skilled with it and at 3 or 4 dollars a round that's just not going to happen for most.

I can reload 100 rounds of 300 grain Speer Deep Curl HP in my 460 S&W for about $35 since I have reloaded the so brass many times. Even if I used new brass every time it would still be one third of the price vs factory loads.

Enjoy the 480 Ruger, it's a beast!
