Does the brain trust think it would it be possible to have an AR built in .454 Casull?

I have no idea if you could do it, but WOW what a piece.
Please let us know if you do by way of pics and range reports. That would be a rocka-rolla! The 2nd Amendment- America's Original Homeland Security كافر "Nothing says "do not **** with me" like a cocked and locked 1911"-Archfire9 |

I don't know if i've ever seen a rimmed cartridge chambered in an AR. Most of the big-bore cartridges for ARs are rebated rim, and rifle cases rimless. Could pose a problem in making one.

A lever action .454 Casull would be very cool. If you're looking for a shoulder-buster in an AR platform, check out Alexander Arm's .50 Beowulf.

A buddy rebarreled an old Ruger #3 to .454 Casull with a fairly light 20" barrel. Total package can't weigh 6.5 pounds max. FACTORY ammo is IMHO like shooting hot .45-70 ammo in a Marlin Guide gun...it aint fun.

I'd like to see a lever gun in .500 S&W.
As far as a .454 in an AR, it just ain't gonna happen. The rimmed cartridge presents serious feeding issues that you just don't want to deal with. ______________________________________________________________________________ Libertas vel Mortis!

The Legacy Puma is made in .454 Casull. And I want one badly.

450 Bushmaster is probably the closest to the power level and trajectory of a 454 Casull
A buddy of mine has a Browning 1885 in 454 Casull. It is one really awsome hunting rifle. He also has a Puma in 454. He says it is a decent rifle, but nowhere as accurate and fun to shoot as the Browning is.

For those of you that like to punish your shoulder Rock River makes a 458 Socom. Fits right on your lower,Be sure to get yourself some 405 grain Corbon's. Shoot three of them and decide to pull the other 17 rounds,That what I did.I then loaded the 17 up with 300 jhp after the swelling went down and the scabbs came off my hand

Just buy a 458 Socom.
