I was just at the store to pick up more 230gr XTP bullets for a 460 Rowland and I was looking at the 250gr Barnes bullets listed for the 454 casull. They are quite long but I was just throwing around ideas of how or if it would be possible to successfully use them in a 460 Rowland. The bullets would be seated quite deep which would increase pressure, but pressure is what the 460 kit was made to handle.

The XTPs will be all I would ever need but it seems like a really interesting idea to me. Anyone have any thoughts?
 
I don't see a benefit myself.... For me it's either 230 XTPs for the little guys or 255 hard cast for scary stuff. I don't know what the Barnes would have to offer that those don't.
 
I would agree XTPs will be all I should ever need but as a lead free hunting option it is interesting and I figure it could be done, I just wouldn't know where to start.
