MS HitmanClint,
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.

Now you'll need to keep an eye open for a matching 480 Ruger SRH

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. (from the gun addict book of collecting ~ intermediate level)

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.

Swede44magI 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.
