[QUOTE="CA48, post: 2110448, member: 21446"] Ive been loading for my cousins Ruger SRH Alaskan 454 Casull 2.5” lately and I’ve come to the conclusion that for bear protection in that barrel length that the 45colt will get close to matching the 454casull velocities with 350gr bullet with less powder. The SRH weighs 48oz the 460 S&W weighs quite a bit more. I think I’m going to try a Taurus judge public defender 2.5” stainless. It weighs 28oz will have less recoil and should shoot 350gr cast 1050-1150fps, the 454casull will run them 1200fps but with more recoil. One potential downside is the judge grip looks a little shorter than the grip on the SRH. [/QUOTE]
