454 Casull, where to buy

[09outlander]

Does anybody know of any sources for 454 Casull, I'm going to be buying a Raging Bull and would like to get the 454 model, but if it's impossible to find ammo I'll just get the 44 mag.

Thanks.

I picked up some Winchester factory ammo at my local gunshop, no big deal.

If you really want your .454 to act like a .454 and not a warm-loaded 45 colt, you'll need to reload however, unless you can somehow get hold of American speciality ammo like Buffalo Bore.

The common factory .454 stuff I have seen is pathetically watered down. Winchester is 250 grain JHP at 1300 fps for example, for 938 ft/lbs of energy.

Real 454 loads will be around 2000 ft/lbs, and in the 2500 - 2800 ft/lbs range from a rifle.
