S&W 460XVR PERFORMANCE CENTER – 460SW 7.5″ AS SS RUBBER

Few handguns demand as much from a shooter as the S&W 460XVR Performance Center in .460 S&W Magnum. Built on the X Frame with a 7.5" barrel and muzzle brake, this is a field and long-range handgun hunting platform. TacticCAL stocks it as a DOJ Roster listed handgun for California buyers.

Hunting Season Prep and the Shooter Who Reaches for Maximum Handgun Power

The 460XVR Performance Center is bought by hunters, handgun silhouette competitors, and serious magnum enthusiasts who want the most powerful production revolver cartridge available. The 7.5" stainless barrel with muzzle brake manages recoil at a level that allows follow-up shots; the integral scope mount means a Leupold or Burris handgun scope mounts directly without additional hardware. The Performance Tuned Action and target-312" trigger are there for precision work at distance. The unfluted cylinder and chrome tear drop hammer are functional choices, not cosmetic ones. The gun rug and sling included make field transport practical from day one. Looking at CA-compliant handguns? Here's what we carry.

Frequently asked questions

Can the 460XVR Performance Center also fire .454 Casull or .45 Colt?

The manufacturer description lists the caliber as .460 S&W Magnum only. No additional chambering information appears in the verified specs or manufacturer description, so we won't confirm compatibility with other cartridges — consult S&W directly before attempting any other cartridge.

What scope or optic actually fits the integral scope base on this revolver?

The manufacturer description confirms an integral scope base and drilled-and-tapped frame. Brands like Leupold and Burris make handgun-specific scopes designed for magnum recoil. Check eye relief specs carefully — handgun scopes require significantly more eye relief than rifle scopes.

This is a large, heavy revolver — what should I sort out during the 10-day wait after DROS?

Source .460 S&W Magnum ammunition for your first range session, and plan a CA-compliant locked transport container for the drive to the range. The gun rug is included, but a hard lockbox meets CA transport requirements. Scheduling time at an outdoor range with sufficient distance for this cartridge is worth doing in advance.
