.454 slugs in .457 Texan

[Greg_E]

Anyone that finds 457 ammo to be the correct size should consider this as an option. Buy 454 or maybe 452 ammo, clean it, and powder coat it. You should get right around 457 from the 454 bullets. That 0.003 of plastic might help them chamber too.

As far as Walther barrels being one of the best, there are a few of us with .510 barrels that would disagree.

have you tried Mr. Hollowpoint?

I started shooting 452 in my Texan last year and they chamber easier and are just as accurate as the 457 I dropped down from a 281gr NSA 457 to the 197gr NSA 452 and I'm now getting 980 fps where before I was getting around 910fps.

Very nice and information thank you for informing us all
