You lost me here, the 500 Wyoming Express is a Freedom Arms chambering, not a Casull...

If you're going to make a hole, make it a big one.

I just figured since Casull invented the revolver they would all be called Casull,s even tho other manufactures make firearms in the 454 Casull caliber ...//
To me a Casull is the revolver whether a 22 RF or 500 Wyoming Express ...
The 454,is its own round lots of 500,s a few 475,s bunch of 45,s , 44,s ect .. but only 1 454 ,

Call it what you want, but Casull to me is the 454 Casull.

Do a web search of "Casull" and it will take you to the 454 Casull and Dick Casull.

Redhawk is correct. Casull refers to a cartridge; whether it is chambered in a Freedom Arms, Super Redhawk, or any other firearm.

Ken's got some experience with these and I'm sure can answer your questions.

If ignorance is bliss; there are some blissful sonofaguns around here. We know who you are, so no reason to point yourselves out.

As a side note, Dick Casull started Casull Arms since he left Freedom and is purportedly going to produce his own revolvers soon........ I hope no one jumps on me for not answering the question........

Ken, how does that 370 grain load shoot? Are you happy with the accuracy? I'll bet it pentrates well.......

... This sounds interesting ....I can duplicate those ballistics with the 454 . but according to the Hodgdon web site it will push a 400 gr cast @ 1550 fps. plus ..... ., but if it worked with those loads it sounds great .....
