The Smith & Wesson Model 460XVR stands as a benchmark in magnum revolver performance, engineered to deliver exceptional velocity and precision. This X-Frame revolver is designed for discerning shooters who require significant ballistic output and reliable long-range accuracy.
Key Features
Caliber and Ballistic Performance
Chambered in .460 S&W Magnum, the 460XVR achieves velocities exceeding 2,300 feet per second. This ballistic capability makes it suitable for extreme long-range applications and demanding field conditions. The robust chambering supports substantial energy transfer on target.
Precision Rifling and Recoil Mitigation
The 8.38-inch stainless steel barrel features a gain-twist rifling profile. This design is engineered to stabilize projectiles effectively, contributing to superb long-range accuracy. To manage the substantial recoil impulse generated by the .460 S&W Magnum cartridge, the 460XVR integrates two distinct muzzle brakes and a removable, interchangeable compensator system. This allows the operator to optimize recoil characteristics based on load specifications and operational requirements.
Durable Construction
Constructed with an X-Frame, the largest frame size produced by Smith & Wesson, this revolver is built for durability and strength to withstand the pressures of magnum cartridges. The barrel, frame, and cylinder are all precision-machined from stainless steel, providing superior corrosion resistance and structural integrity. Black synthetic grips are fitted to ensure a secure and ergonomic purchase, even under heavy recoil.
