I owned a Performance Center .460 with a 10 1/2" barrel. 15 rounds and it was misrable after that . I wouldn't even want to shoot a snubby.

Its kinda pointless, the bullet looses so much speed from such a short barrel that the majority of you powder is being burned in front of the muzzle. I bet you would even find a better combination with something alittle smaller but still big as hell, say 44mag 4in Barrel.

Agreed. I'd like to see some facts & figures on either of these rounds shot from a short barrel. I'd imagine that the flame-thrower effect would be quite impressive. I built a few AR-15 pistols and quickly discovered that they're best at lighting things on fire.
