I have come across a supply of factory 450 short colt and was told it was safe to fire it in a .455 webley just wanted to have this confirmed before doing so. I would shoot .455 but it has been back ordered so much, who knows when it will arrive.

Thanks
 
I have yet to come across any 450 colt or 450 adams but it should shoot fine out of a 455 Webley, the case dimensions are very close to a MKII 455 brass and the bullet itself is a smaller .455 diameter pill, energy levels are very close 211-245ft/sec.
Personally, I would sell the 450 ammo to collectors and spend the proceeds on reloading the 455. Reloading is much cheaper in the end.
