The .460 S&W Mag is 1.8" long, but of course, much too high pressure. Downloading it suitably, might not produce the power level you need.




Yessir. You are exactly right. That cartridge did cross my mind but at 65K PSI, its a bit more than what I want to try with a shotgun action.
....and like you said, if you downloaded it to around 40K, you would be right there with a .44 Rem Mag. Personally, if I was going to that, Id just go with a .500 Linebaugh, those are even less pressure yet. Around 30K if I remember right. Its almost twice the energy as a .44 mag and at a lower pressure.
