[QUOTE="COBrad, post: 1596226, member: 1940"] You have the perfect gun for your proposed use in your FA .454. I have one with the 7.5” barrel. Have killed two elk, 15 and 68 yards shooting 300 grain XTP mag and a Barnes 250 grain. Both boiler room shots both down within 50 yards. The 15 yard was a smooth draw from the chest holster and a one-hand shot as soon as the Vortex Venom dot was on her chest. Shot a 600ish lbs black bear with two 325 grain wide hard cast from a .44 mag as he faced me at 10 paces. Hit the right shoulder up against the neck and found both bullets in the hide at the back of the left hind quarter. About 5’ of penetration. I really like the small reflex sight and it’s held up to a couple hundred full power loads so far. [/QUOTE]
