Buffalo Bore Ammunition 7D/20 454 Casull Lead-Free XPB 250Gr 20 Box
This Load Utilizes The Deep Penetrating-For Weight Barnes XPB Bullet. This Bullet Will Expand violently On Flesh And Bone And Will Penetrate roughly 24 inches, depending On Impact Velocity And The Particular bones That May Be Struck.
The Long-For-Weight XPB Bullet crowds Available Powder Capacity In The 454 Casull Casing, So We Are Not Able To Use a Bulky Flash Retardant Powder. You Will Notice a Muzzle Flash From shorter Barrels, But as Your Barrel Length increases Beyond 7 Or 8 inches, The Flash greatly diminishes And Of Course There Is No Flash When Fired From a Carbine.
This Load Would Be Ideal For Deer And Black Bear. Even Elk Sized Critters Can Be Taken If You Stick With Broadside Or Cns Shots And Avoid Those Bad Angle Shots.

The Below Information Has Been Provided From Our Gun Caliber Dictionary And Is Meant For Informational Purposes Only. It Is Not Intended to Describe The Unique Specifications For This Ammunition.
The 454 Casull was developed by Dick Casull and Jack Fulmer in 1957. The original intent was a revolver cartridge more powerful than the 44 Magnum and thus more reliable for metallic silhouette, but it has evolved into a popular choice for serious handgun hunters. The 454 Casull uses a .452-inch bullet with a rimmed case of 1.3976 inches, longer than the 45 Colt case so that it cannot be used in 45 Colt revolvers...but 45 Colt ammunition can be safely fired in a Casull chamber for low-recoil practice. Although now surpassed by the 460 and 500 S&W cartridges, the 454 Casull is a very powerful cartridge. It has become popular enough that most major sources load for it with choices of loads up to a 300-grain bullet at 1650 feet per second, developing over 1800 foot-pounds of energy. The 454 Casull is powerful enough--and proven--on the largest North American game, and with proper bullets has taken the largest African game as well. —
