I have been thinking about a new revolver. The 454 casull in a custom ruger Redhawk or maybe a super Redhawk. I also like the bisley super blackhawk, and consequently the BFR in 454 as well.
I shoot 44 mag a bunch, and used to have a taurus raging bull in 454 casull that never saw reduced loads. Am I selling myself short by thinking about a 454, or should I be looking at 460 or 500 S&W? I would use this for hunting bears and maybe bison someday, and an occasional elk along the way.
This gun will probably end up with a scope, but at least a few seasons will be open sights. And Montana or coastal Washington bears and elk, probably not getting to Alaska any time soon.
What would you do in my place?
