[QUOTE="calling4life, post: 1587520, member: 48454"] You've shot two elk with a 2.5" 454? I'd like to hear more about how they went down, follow up shots etc... I am actually looking at this exact gun vs. the 4" xframe 500 for defense myself, I live in bear and wolf country, now it's black bear, but I can't help think that this small 454 has got to have recoil that would rival a braked/comp'ed 500 that's also 11.6oz heavier. I don't reload either, interested in how this thread plays out, I'd love to hear about how manageable or not this 454 is at the range. With full loads. [/QUOTE]
