I moved back to AK and now looking for a good bear load for my .454 casull, ruger SRH (7.5"). I have some 260gr semi jacketed flat points and they are shooting fine but the more I read about grizzly attacks the more I want a heavier boolit.
I've seen many in the 300-325gr range which was going to be my starting point but then I noticed some 370gr W/GC at the LGS. Now thats a big hunk of lead, WOW!! I didn't notice if they are FP or RN but will go back to check since I want a flat point.
Has anyone loaded that heavy for the 454?
How was the recoil and accuracy?
Where did you find load info?
Are there heavier boolits available or even recommended for the .454?
FWIW I will be getting another .454 in either the 2.5" or 5" barrel from ruger, the load recipes should remain pretty much unchanged, right??
