I recently purchased a ruger no 1 chambered in 460 S&W. Does anyone have any chronograph data of factory loads, or their reloads that they would like to share?
What I am really wondering, is how much velocity will the rifle give me over the pistol lenght barrels?
 
Depending on MANY variables somewhere from 500fps to as much as 750fps. My 454 carbine does this easily, the 460 might --or might not--be any faster.
You CANNOT know without running everything over a chronograph. Guesses do NOT count.
And so it goes...

For comparison I am getting a touch over 2000 FPS with 300 grain XTP Mag bullets and 1830 FPS with Cast performance 360 grain WLNGC bullets. I use Lil Gun and my revolver is a S&W XVR 8 3/8 stock.
