Brought it home and went thru the instruction manual. Kinda disappointed as it was pretty much generic. Says nothing re shooting shorter cartridges in the 460 chamber ~ in fact if it weren't for the marking on the gun itself, one would wonder what it was. Guess the printed mat'l hadn't caught up w/the HW yet. Wonder if one could shoot 2 3/4" 410 shotshells thru it? Did note its not to be dry fired tho ~ Came w/an extra front sight. Fitment seeamed better than Ruger. Throats meas apprx .4523 and grooves are supposedly .451 but haven't meas'd it yet. ==================================================================================================== Note: This post may contain misspellings, grammatical errors, disorganized sentence structure, or may entirely lack a coherent theme.

Magnum Research has not changed there manual in a number of years. My 500 Mag BFR that I bought in 2002 cam with the same manual I bought with my BFR 45-70 in 2007. You are right, not a lot of information there. As for the 410 shot shell, I would not do it, even if it fit. If you're going to make a hole, make it a big one.

Let's face it, it is a BIG Ruger, pretty standard fare. How much instruction is needed? The .460 will shoot the .45 Colt, .454 and the .460. Not much thought needed is there? | |||
