Clint, I had one of those years ago. I suggest a cast bullet weight in the 300 to 325 grain range. You can use the 2400 in the Casull. There is a good bit of loading data available from the powder manufacturer. My preference is a Keith or LFN profile. Congrats on the first deer. If ignorance is bliss; there are some blissful sonofaguns around here. We know who you are, so no reason to point yourselves out. | |||

psst . . . if they 'look' the same, and have them out one at a time, it appears to be only one gun. Saved my marriage by sticking w/stainless as they tend look alike.

Just don't shoot a srh 480, I've shot them in both 454 and 480, and own a 480. As to the 454, a good 330 gr cast bullet and H-110 is your friend. I shot some steller groups with my buddies 454 srh, but I have no idea what the charge weight was. I'd also say loaded down to 1200-1300 fps it is a much more enjoyable gun to shoot. __________________________________________________ The AR series of rounds, ridding the world of 7mm rem mags, one gun at a time. | |||

I have a 8" Stainless 454 Tarus Raging Bull I took one deer at aprox 50yrds with a 250gr XTP mag it didnt expand even at over 1600fps just made a hole clean through. Good luck and I hope you enjoy your 454 SRH. Swede --------------------------------------------------------- NRA Life Member | |||
