alaskan vs s&w 500 - Springfield XD Forum
Nov 30, 2011 · Since the Super Redhawk Alaskan model is being presented primarily as a wilderness survival/protection tool, chambered for one of the most powerful revolver cartridges available, but with a barrel length that is only one-third the length of the industry-standard reference barrel for that cartridge, I wanted to find out how much of a loss in the .454 …
Looking for a big bore revolver.....s&w .500, or .454 casull
May 7, 2012 · Just purchased the S&W 460 with 8 3/8 barrel, recoil is milder than the 500, very accurate, and fits me well. You ca use 454's and 45 colt to practice with, much more economical. If you can find one give it a test drive.

Glock 29SF 10mm vs. Ruger Alaskan .454 Casull - Springfield XD …
Nov 4, 2009 · I'll take the .454 casull in any barrel length over a 10mm. I don't know how the .454 and .45-70 will compare, I've never shot, or even seen a .45-70. Bigger case...might mean more ass behind the bullet. But like I said...I dunno. But a .454 is pretty bad ass, and will get the job done. Or grab a .460 and you can also shoot .454 and .45 colt.

.454 Casull - best pistol to shoot it | Springfield XD Forum

357 Sig. Back Up Bear Gun??? | Springfield XD Forum
Dec 28, 2005 · I don't think the .357 SIG round is going to be any more effective vs bears than .40 or .45ACP loaded with hot rounds. I would think a .45 with 230g +P load would be a better choice. Of course, personally I wouldn't go lower than a .44 …
