50 cal vs 454 casull
What cartridge is more powerful? Does the 50 cal supercede the 454 Casull? I know the 454 Casull contains rifle primer so the CPU is 60 ksi but how does it compare to a 50 cal or even a 46 or 48 cal? Just curious.

Re: 50 cal vs 454 casull
according to Wiki in pistol rounds...
.50 GI
.500 Wyoming Express
.500 S&W Magnum
Plus a few older ones.....
But to answer the posters original question, again quoting wiki...
"Until the introduction of the .460 Smith and Wesson Magnum, and the .500 S&W Magnum, the .454 Casull was the most powerful commercially produced handgun round on the market, significantly eclipsing the newer .50 AE in both power and availability.'Last edited by BIA_Design; January 27th, 2009 at 06:14 PM.

Yeah really..
The 454 is still a powerhouse compared to some of the other .45cal, 475cal, and .50cal handgun cartridges.
Note the = < > to which the 454 Casull is relatively comparable. Custom loads can vary results.
454 < 500 S&W Mag
454 > 500 S&W Special
454 > 50 AE
454 => 500 Linebaugh
454 = 500 Linebaugh Long
454 > 50 Bowen Special
454 = 500 Wyoming Expess
454 =< 50 Beowolf
454 > 50GI (is closer powered to a 45ACP)RIP: SFN, 1861, twoeggsup, Lambo, jamesjo, JayBell, 32 Magnum, Pro2A, mrwildroot, dregan, Frenchy, Fragger, ungawa, Mtn Jack, Grapeshot, R.W.J., PennsyPlinker, Statkowski, Deanimator, roland, aubie515, SteveWag
