- The .454 Casull Magnum is a powerful handgun cartridge developed in the early 2000s by Dick Casull, an American firearms designer. It is based on the .45 Colt cartridge but is longer and more powerful, with a higher velocity and greater energy.
The .454 Casull Magnum is typically used for hunting and personal defense, as its high velocity and energy make it effective against large game animals and dangerous predators. However, its recoil is also significant, and it can be difficult to handle for inexperienced shooters. - Bullet Weight (gr) ->0-5050-7575-100100-150150-200200-300>300Accurate No. 5👍👍Alliant POWER PISTOL👍👍👍Alliant UNIQUE👍👍Lovex D036👍👍Rottweil P 806👍👍👍Shooters World Auto Pistol👍👍SNPE Vectan BA7 1/2👍👍👍Somchem S221👍👍Vihtavuori 3N37👍👍Vihtavuori 3N38👍👍Vihtavuori N350👍👍👍
