S&W 460XVR 3.5" Performance Center Unboxing

[@jeffreylocke8808]

Love my 460V X-frame model and use the cast bullet muzzle brake exclusively as jacketed bullets work in it also. The 5 inch muzzle brake equipped barrel is my favorite revolver. Lehigh Defense 45 Colt loads work in the long cylinder of the 460 S&W magnum too.

[@jeffreylocke8808]

Bowen Classic Arms makes a lanyard ring that replaces the screw in the Hogue grip. I have one on each of my X-frame and N-frame revolvers using the Hogue 500 recoil absorbing sorbethane padded rubber grip.

[@mixflip]

thanks for making such a detailed video on this revolver. I have lusted after this beast since day one but there aren't many videos of it. it's on my must have list before I die.

i see you everywhere mixflip 😅 but yeah i handled a 10”ish version of this when i picked up my 686 and up to this day i am dreaming of having this one... interestingly no one has yet to purchase that same revolver up to this day... soon enough it’ll be mine 😈

[@kevinyoung1447]

I’ve had several different models of the 460 but I feel I have the 2 ultimate models the 14 inch and the 3.5 inch, both in Performance Center. Thank you for your time and content! Keep up the good work!

[@patrickgermond2750]

[@humans4targets2]

Bro that is one of the sweetest looking revolvers ever! the dark green grips and the subdued silver, love it man! I would take that revolver in an instant!

[@TheBeefSlayer]

You can have one for about 2,000$. lol.

[@UziNineMillomeetah]

Man that is one slick looking big boy revolver. The olive grips look really sharp, and I love the skeletonized look of the ejector rod protector. Awesome addition!

[@TheOl1911]

+UziNineMillomeetah thanks! Its a nice addition but I don't know how much I'll be shooting this thing. We'll see

[@GunCollector007]

Wow!!!!! What a monster! Has to be one of the most intimidating Revolvers out there. The Cylinder alone looks like it weighs as much as a J frame, lol. Did not know it could shoot so many different Rounds. What a beauty. Congrats!!!

[@TheOl1911]

+Gun Collector007 I know right? This is one intimidating revolver for sure. People that have looked at this just shake their head. I had a cop actually say this revolver should be banned!??! Whatever... stay tuned for the next vid as I tell that story. Thanks as always my friend.

[@jellybryce7742]

Surprised theres no lever actions for these new revolver calibers. Are they too stout for the lever action frames?

[@Professionalk907]

Man I really enjoyed your video. I love how enthusiastic you are about your 460 s&w. Just watching your video makes mr want to go out and get one for myself. Amazing revolver. Smith and Wesson did a great job with this one just like they did with all their other models lol I am a huge s&w 500 with 4" barrel fan! Perfect for a good chest holster while out in the wilderness where the possibility of encounters with large predators exist. Anyhow... great video man!

[@kyleloew432]

brown bear/grizzly defense, big outdoors defense, perfect

[@Sedan57Chevy]

I know a guy who keeps one of these in his desk. He runs a car dealership and he has actually had to pull it out a few times when people came to steal cars. Never had to fire it, thankfully, but most people freak out the second they see it. Rough part of town lol Also, you should do a video on concealing that beast of a revolver, even if it would be sort of a joke. Like when you show off the holsters, show us what it would take to actually hide on. I packed a six-inch N-Frame once (What was I thinking?) so I'm curious if the shorter barrel would offset the larger X-Frame.

[@TheOl1911]

+Sedan57Chevy My god - someone actually uses this for defensive work!??!?!!? I already had a cop say this revolver should be banned. Stay tuned on the next vid where I show a concealment holster for it, hahahahaha. Totally not practical for hip carry. Its just too heavy. Chest holster is the way to go with something this heavy/big. 6" N-Frame, dang man! I talk to a armored car guy here who carries a 5" N-Frame in a 200AW (M&P R8) as his duty gun. He says it carries nice.

[@Sedan57Chevy]

He did have a super Redhawk alaskan for a while in .454 that he did have to fire once, as a warning shot, and after that he went up to the .460 for more intimidation, although I don't think he actually loads full-load .460s in it (probably just .454's).

[@MidwayShooter]

I have been waiting for that new arrival. You didn't disappoint . Beautiful addition to your collection. Need some shooting video footage ASAP.

[@TheOl1911]

+MidwayShooter LOL - thanks my friend! I don't know if I can get 460mag footage...I'll try...

[@nathanielwillisjr8891]

You have one of the best gun channel on KZbin.

[@TheOl1911]

+nathaniel willis jr wow thanks for the kind words!!!!

[@SolarEmp1re]

That's a sweet revolver you got there as usual. I'm like your friend however and opted for the .454 Ruger Alaskan back when they were first released and it's been a sweetheart. I opted for the .454 not only for ammo availability but the .454 doesn't suffer in the FPS department from shorter barrels.

[@jmuhr8952]

Picked up one of these a month ago. Went to my local shop wanting a $600 92fs and walked out spending $1300 on this monster. Actually had the salesman who was new to the shop trying to talk me out of it. Then the manager who knows me quite well saw me with it and said, yep that's what I thought you'd be looking at. I love my super redhawk Alaskan in 44 mag but wanted something with a little more punch. Kinda puzzled a salesman tried to talk me out of spending money for once.

[@ACUNA909]

Love the vid man, it really went in depth and was informative. I’m very close to purchasing one and I’m honestly a lil anxious about what to expect, biggest round I’ve ever fired was a .357 so that 460 Hornady looks pretty intimidating. Regardless I’m stoked about getting one of my own.

[@TheGunfighter45acp]

Nice choice. it will surely be a worthy addition to the collection. BTW, I'm trying to remember: what ever became of your .41 mag?

[@D5quared91]

A very nice gun. Use .460 magnums for anti-chubacabra defense! Also works well on Reptillian mothership energy shielding.

[@TheOl1911]

+D5quared91 LOLOLOL

[@denn606]

I have the 5" barrel 460 with 12 ports and it isn't too bad on recoil, I can't imagine shooting yours with no ports and so short barrel. A few years ago S&W came out with a survival kit in both 460 and 500, both with 2" barrels, also a wrist lanyard, both for defence against dangerous game like bears, but with your life on the line I don't care if it broke my wrist, I'd shoot it.

[@stevemihacevich2195]

A bear chasing me isn't what I'd call a controlled environment

[@jkickinutube]

I dont know that I want to shoot the 460, but I LOVE the gun!! Awesome, Marvelous!!!!! Cheers! Jon

[@TheOl1911]

+jkickinutube yeah shooting 460mag isn't the most fun but it is every once in a while. I guess it all depends. I think it would be different if I had a range that allowed 460mag and/or a range that doesn't have people get all in a tissy when you shoot one. I tell ya...

[@funcounting]

Looks top tier but isn't 3.5" is a bit of a waste? Would be hard to accurately shoot heavier loads too.

[@Denvco1]

I have a 460V and love it. Damned fireball throwing Beast! I use it for protection. You never know when a rouge T Rex or Woolly Mammoth may decide to charge.

[@QuesarRider]

I would use the .460, you don't get a fast car to save on gas and go the speed limit. The .45 colt is a good strong round but your not using the gun to its potential, it seems like your wasting it. The .45 probably will foul up your barrel and give you more to clean.

[@ADyess086]

Minor Bob my thoughts exactly

[@UtahGetMe2]

ADyess086 you’re both correct. I own the 7.5 performance center version, and .45 LC is great for a lighter round, but damn, it DOES get dirty!

[@MPGunther1]

JEEZ, what a beast, look forward to your range review

[@TheOl1911]

+MPGunther1 I'll do my best to see if I can get some 460mag footage, I'm not sure....

[@caddilacjim]

That's defiantly a bear gun and the OD green grip suits it.Great video.

[@TheOl1911]

+caddilacjim this one is literally a handful. Thanks my friend

[@jeffreylocke8808]

That Performance Center 460 S&W magnum looks sweet. I would get ported by Mag-Na-Port. Shoots 454 Casull and 45 Autorim too.

[@CmaxArms]

I like the grips, they look like Hogue rubber. Good for bear I bet. Definitely a hand cannon!!!! Cmax

[@timdolan6585]

I own this exact model revolver. Yes, there is a lot of recoil but it's not as bad as people think. The rubber grips seem to help quite a bit. Take a weaver stance when you shoot it and don't lock your elbows.

[@Fudmottin]

You will appreciate the power of the .460 Magnum if ever you have to fend off a main battle tank.

[@jamesdykejr2980]

The 460 S &W magnum is a great hunting round. Bear, deer and elk. It doesn't matter what length barrel the revolver has. It's getting used to the gun it has substantial recoil. Once you've mastered that you've got a dandy. I only use 460 mag full loads in mine otherwise come hunting season I'm not used to the gun. Jim in Montana

[@jeffreylocke8808]

The Late Jeff Quinn liked that model 460 S&W magnum the best. Bowen Classic Arms makes a steel Target Adjustable rear sight for S&W revolvers and put one on both my X-frame revolvers.

[@Lunchman.d]

Wow it looks nicer than the 460 I was telling you about.. I think the unfluted cylinder is cool because every one I've seen has fluted. They must be thinking unfluted can stand up to those hot 460mag loads a little longer than fluted, because this performance center version is definitely designed to be more of a high volume shooter than the longer barrel hunting versions that get shot few times per season you know? And the front looks more streamlined.. the longer hunting versions with interchangeable weights hanging off look a little clunky. All in all it looks cool.. can't wait to see a range video with it

[@looseballs1966]

+tim d Just a little fyi for you tim, fluted or non-fluted has nothing to do with the strength of the cylinder" per say"(even though in theory the extra metal would be a tad stronger) as in that's is not really why they do it, it's just a looks thing really, as in some thinks it looks "better", not one 460 they build is made to be any more of a shooter than any other model, because when you are dealing with a cartridge capable of developing 65,000 psi (the same as the biggest magnum rifles), any gun that is not completely built for it will only take a couple shots to go to pieces (so to speak), performance center Smith guns are for the most part just more finely tuned, and more carefully hand assembled, with some differing cosmetics to set them apart on some models, from the mainline production ones, as for the "interchangeable weights" I can't think of any 460 they build that has that, but they most all, except this model here, have interchangeable muzzle brakes, and the very long (10-12-14 inch barreled models)have a barrel band type front site, that to the novice(not trying to call you a novice but if no one ever told you how would you know) may appear to be a weight, and I just happen to own 3 of the 460's ( the 5 inch, 8 3/8th's, and the 14inch models), I also own 2 of the 500's (the 10 and a half inch and the 8 3/8 inch models), I also own a pretty long list of other Smith's, so yes I am a Smith and Wesson revolver addict and know them pretty well lol, and bite your toungue lol "only shot a few times a year" Very much not so, I shoot mine a BUNCH, (gotta reload for them though) all season long, they are some of the absolute funnest guns to shoot that I own.

[@Lunchman.d]

Yeah I meant the muzzle breaks.. the one I shot came with 3 of them and they did weigh substantially different. The 460's come with some type of performance center insignia on the case and paper manual, but I believe they are more like the pro series.. performance center parts but assembled on the main Smith n Wesson assembly line. He did a video on the pro series for another revolver. The one I shot was a 5" and all it had stamped on it was 460v, even the owner said it's not a true performance center model.. but the one in this video appears to be performance center that's why I was saying it's more of a shooter you know?

[@Lunchman.d]

Shooting a bunch of times a year is one thing, but the performance center page for that model talks about "all day precision range shooting".. who would should a 460 all day? Hahahaa

[@looseballs1966]

tim d Well I tried to explain that to you but apparently you just know so much freaking more than someone who has shot one a freaking bunch ( I on the average shoot a hundred or so rounds at a range visit), and the short barreled thing is not the only performance center versions of the 460, ( my 14 inch is a performance center gun), I have a just a stellar idea for you, just maybe instead of jumping on the dip shit youtube ban wagon, and believing all the crap you hear on there, go out and experience one for yourself, the short barrel really doesn't "kick" as bad as many of these pussies on here would lead you to believe, and if so many of them took the time to learn how to shoot properly with the large high power type guns (many on here have no clue as to proper grip and how to manage recoil), rather than arguing with someone who knows what he's talking about, instead of being so freaking bull headed ( a trait that the younger generation and even so many others have in spades anymore, they all just seem to know everything about everything), well I'm done wasting any more time here with a bunch of dim wits that don't want to maybe learn just a tad, I'll just say that even the 38 special "kicks" hard in a light gun like the 340pd for example (but hell I just went out and shot mine a couple days ago, and when I got home realized that I had indeed shot nearly all of the full house hanloads that I load are about as hot as you dare put through that particular gun on the will it handle it basis alone, that amounted to 95 rounds, and on top of that 150 rounds of 38+p and I never suffered any ills as some would lead you to think with that gun would cause in that many shots) just another little fyi for you the only reason I don't shoot more of the 460 than about a hundred rounds a visit, even reloading the 300 grain XTP's and other components I use, still adds up to about $75 per 100 rounds, and my handloads are no wimpy reduced loads by the way, they are moving at damn near 2150 feet per second even out of the 8 3/8ths barrel, like I said before there is just something too fun about hitting a target at 100+ yards and seeing it destroy it as bad as little wimpy 44 magnum does at 20 (you know like the water melons and crap that guys do on here, but for me it is the 2 quart size cans of tomato and other juices that have gone past date), but that is fine, on second thought, yes they are too much recoil for mortal man to handle, so you better stick to your little baby gun 9mm's and such, not calling myself anything better than mortal man really, but if everyone else thinks they are so bad then that will make them more available for me to buy ( my goal is to own at least 1 of every model of 460 and 500 they make), so yep they are too much for you guys, so go buy a little piece of junk kelltech or hightech 380 or 9mm or something of the like, and leave the real guns for the real men. Oh by the way I live just about 1 mile from where I shoot and hardly a week goes by that I don't go shoot some sort of gun, and when the weather is good I often shoot every day at least a handfull of rounds through my current carry gun, and most of my shooting gear never leaves my car because I never know when the urge to shoot something will hit me, the running joke amongst my friends is I have more ammo and shooting supplies in my truck than the local sporting goods store LOL.

[@Lunchman.d]

I didn't say anything about one kicking hard, and I don't own any 9mm or any "kelltech" guns. I only shot a 5" model, and it was not from the performance center. The 460 itself is overkill for pig hunting we do here and too expensive. Shotguns and revolvers like .357mag or .44mag work fine. Everything else I typed came off Smith n Wesson's website and from their own videos.

[@ShotgunShooter6666]

I wouldn't shoot the 460 mag rounds out of the 3.5 inch barrel, I don't think you have enough barrel to benefit from that cartridge. 45 colt+P and 454 Casull will do all you need. I have a 5 inch Ruger Super Redhawk Toklat in 454, I shoot Underwood 300gr XTP in 45 Colt+P at 1300 fps in mine. I can highly recommend that round for an all around hunting/woods defense ammo. I have shot the full power 454 Casull rounds from Buffalo Bore out of my Toklat as well as my buddy's 460 3.5 inch and I can honestly say the Smith handled the recoil better. Beautiful weapon! Great review.

[@thepaisanokid2738]

The performance centers have a nice tight barrel cylinder gap. Velocity loss is not as much as what you would think. I have this revolver as well as a 10.5 inch 460 performance center. My 10.5 is right at and slightly exceeding factory listed velocities. The 3.5 is generally only 100 fps slower than what's listed on the box. So you give up nothing in killing power. The 200 grain hornadys are fun at the range due to the blast and fire. 400 grain hardcasts better hold on!

[@WeekendWarrior604]

I think .460 is a defensive round... you gotta defend yourself from the recoil 😅

+Moto Rad Smith and Wesson says the 2 piece barrel gives better accuracy but in all honesty it's just cheaper to manufacture. No these are not barrel burners I've owned multiple big bore revolvers for years with no problems, barrel burners are usually small caliber, fast moving projectiles like .22-250, .221 fireball, .220 swift, etc..

[@moto_rad]

I shot my buddy's.500 magnum and it wasn't even fun. The .460 seems more practical because of the various calibers you can shoot out of it. I was told by a gun shop owner you can also shoot .45 Schoffield out of the .460.

[@SolarEmp1re]

+Dan Saracco you can shoot .460 (obviously), .454 casual, .45 long colt, and .45 Schofield. All these rounds are (virtually) identical accept for case length so think .357 magnum and .38 special. However the shorter the cartridge the longer the jump from cylinder to forcing cone which can affect accuracy.

[@TheOl1911]

+Dan Saracco 500mag is even more outrageous to me. I think the 460mag is also a bit outrageous but...we'll see what I can do with it. 454 seems more reasonable.

.460 just seems like S&W wanting to brag with a mostly useless cartridge. It would be better off in a rifle, but then again .45-70 has been around a very long time and can be loaded with up to 550gr hard cast which will go through tree trunks. There's a limit to what is honestly useable in handguns. S&W just wanted to be "the world's most....." with .45 cal and .50 cal. Well good for them. Except those X-frame guns are such clunky hunks of metal. They just leave all realm of handgun usefulness. Personally I'd be very happy with a SA or DA revolver in .45 colt which has been hot-loaded. Accomplish anything a pistol needs to accomplish. Everything else there is a rifle to use. As far as cylinder gap between the .45 Colt and the forcing cone? Not sure you'll deal with accuracy problems, but it will foul up the cylinder after a while. Also, gas pressure will move around the slug as it leaves the casing, before it enters the forcing cone and rifling. That will mean a loss of performance as it blows through the cylinder gap and disturbs the stability of the slug before it enters the barrel. How much? Not significant. The grungy cylinder will be something you'll need to brush. Same cylinder issues apply with .454 Casull firing .45 Colt, .357 Mag firing .38 spl. Anything that has a shorter case than is chambered in the cylinder.
