[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 2046452, member: 2736"] Hello Jamie. I have nothing against the Raptor and if you wanted to use an AR it would be an easier solution. At the time I built the bolt action, It was so my brother in law could use the same ammo in his pistol without having to reload. He could also go to the indoor range and shoot the Non Magnum pistol or rifle using the 45 long colt ammo. When I decided to go with the 460 S&W in the rifle, It made life simple because I have a pistol and a rifle that use the same ammo. 45 Long colt, 454 Casull and 460 S&W. As far as I know there are no pistols in 45 Raptor and I cant find any load data for pistols. The 45 Raptor gives up 3,000 Psi design pressure to the the 460 so potentially they are not the same even though people can say they are. I use design pressures for all comparisons to keep things on a apples to apples comparison. With that said, If you don't have a 460 pistol the Raptor would be a good alternative as long as you reload. Also I live on the south side of Houston. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
