i have a 454 cas raging bull the 8 3/8 with a burris scope on it. i hand load all my loads for it, it really likes the barnes bullets but they are a bit spendy at 1.00 each but normally i shoot the 250 horn xtp. i have shot a few animals with it. a badger, 2 yotes it was pretty devastating

i have shot one deer with it and it worked very well i would say it was like shooting one with a 30-30 in and out threw the lungs 85 yards about 30 yards and was bleed out and done for very good cal one of my faves and is a power horse no problem to 100yards. hope this helps ya.
