Product Summary
Smith & Wesson M460 XVR Revolver 460 S&W Magnum 14″ Barrel Bipod 5 Round Stainless Steel
The Model 460XVR is so revolutionary that it required an entirely different designation, (XVR) X-treme Velocity Revolver. Starting with their Extra Large Frame, the Smith & Wesson engineers worked to deliver maximum velocity – over 2,300 feet per second – to reach the target faster than ever before. The 460XVR has interchangeable compensators to accommodate every load. Plus, its “gain-twist” rifled barrel means superb long-range accuracy (beyond 200 yards) with every shot. This Performance Center is the ultimate expression of old-world craftsmanship blended with modern technology. It has a stainless steel frame, cylinder, and 14″ barrel. Included is a bi-pod.

Caliber Dictionary
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 460 S&W Magnum, introduced in 2006, is an obvious follow-own to the big 500 S&W Magnum. The 460 uses a 1.80-inch case with a .4525-inch diameter bullet; like the 500 it is intended as a powerful revolver cartridge for big game hunting, but the 460 is faster and shoots flatter, with a 260-grain load at a whopping 2000 feet per second, yielding over 2300 foot-pounds of muzzle energy. This is not as powerful as the 500, so perhaps not as well-suited for extremely large game–but that’s still incredible performance from a revolver! Needless to say, recoil is both fast and hard, with a lot of muzzle rise. This is a cartridge for experienced handgunners who aren’t recoil-shy, but the 460 S&W has been proven extremely effective as a hunting cartridge. Smith & Wesson is the primary source for revolvers, but ammunition in multiple bullet weights is available from several manufacturers. — Craig Boddington
