It is my only gun with a light raiI, but I want more power for when I'm out after dark in cougar/black bear country, which happens. I'm concerned that a barrel-only .460 conversion will batter my short slide/frame to death even faster than a longer one. But will it? Also, what kind of velocity differences do the same warm loads produce between 4.25, 5, and 6-inch barrels? If I decide I want to go that way, do you do kits including 5 or 6-inch slides? What loads would you use for my purposes? Thanx! John O'Renick I want some expansion Hi, Johnny;
