.460 S&W or .500 S&W Magnums with heavier bullets. are good possibilities, but might present high pressure problems.
If small and mighty are too high pressured, that leaves larger diameter bullets and cases as the 'viable' alternative.
No idea what those cartridges are. Ballistics needed. Are they rimmed?
Both rimmed. The .460, from a 10 3/4" bl will run 400gr. bullets up to about 1,700fps.
The 500, from a 10" bl. will push 500gr. up to 1,600fps. However, both are high pressure revolver ctgs.
