leaves off the 10mm
I have the Ruger Super Redhawk 454 Casull in the 7.5" barrel. Wearing 1/2 finger shooting gloves, and fire 20 rounds, I was done for the day. I'm thinking the 5" would have a bit more of a kick, and that's on the 454 not the 460 which I never shot. But that's just me BangBang, you need to do what feels right for you. Good luck on whatever way you choose, I don't think you'll be dissatisfied with either chose to be honest.I’m set up with a G40 (10mm) looking at a hunting revolver. I have confidence in the 10mm. I am just searching at the ballistics on 5” compared to the 7.5” in the .460
Though not a bear, a 300+lb wild boar charging will get your heart going. Why I switched from a bolt gun to a .308 AR. I use a .357 Mag S&W for back up. I have found using the .357 Mag for quick shots when the AR wasnt on me have been adequate.
i could not imagine a bear charging though. I’d need new trousers afterwards.
