This week, we're taking a look at the Model 460XVR, from Smith & Wesson. A big-bore revolver designed for the serious handgun hunter, the 460XVR is chambered in .460 S&W Magnum, but can also handle .45 Colt, and .454 Casull, making it quite a versatile option. As far as optics go, the pistol not only sports a fiber optic front sight and rear bracket, but boasts an integral scope base topside. For more information on this big-game hunter's handgun, check out the video embedded above, hosted by Digital Associate Editor, David Herman.
