Frequently Asked Questions
Smith & Wesson Model 460 XVR for sale
Is a 460 more powerful than a 44 magnum?
Yes. The 460 S&W Magnum delivers significantly more energy and velocity than the 44 Magnum, firing larger projectiles at roughly 500 fps faster. This produces a flatter trajectory and greater effective range for hunting and bear defense, though recoil is substantially heavier.
Will a 460 stop a bear?
A 460 S&W Magnum can stop a bear. Its heavy bullets and high velocity generate enough energy to penetrate deeply and hit vitals. Shot placement matters most. Bear spray statistically outperforms firearms in stopping charges, but the 460 is among the more capable handgun options if you choose a firearm.
What caliber is a 460 XVR?
The 460 XVR is chambered in .460 S&W Magnum, firing .45-caliber bullets. It also accepts .454 Casull and .45 Colt cartridges. It is one of the highest-velocity production revolvers ever made.
