Smith & Wesson Model 460XVR .460 S&W 5" Revolver

The Ultimate Big Bore Revolver

The Smith & Wesson Model 460XVR represents a quantum leap in revolver engineering. The designation itself—XVR, for X-treme Velocity Revolver—signals that this is no ordinary handgun. Built on Smith & Wesson's Extra Large X-Frame, the 460XVR delivers performance that redefines what a revolver can do.

Ballistic Performance

The 460XVR achieves muzzle velocities exceeding 2,100 feet per second, delivering energy that rivals rifle cartridges. The gain-twist rifled barrel ensures exceptional accuracy beyond 200 yards—a capability rarely found in revolvers. This makes the 460XVR equally at home in the hunting field or on the long-range target range.

Versatility and Adaptability

Interchangeable Muzzle Brakes: The revolver ships with two compensators—one optimized for jacketed bullets, the other for lead ammunition. This allows you to fine-tune performance for your specific loads.

Dual Rear Sights: Two adjustable rear sights are included, permitting precise targeting across the three cartridges this revolver handles: .460 S&W Magnum, .454 Casull, and .45 Colt.

Construction and Reliability

The entire revolver—frame, cylinder, and 5" barrel—is machined from stainless steel with a satin finish. The synthetic grip provides a secure hold even in demanding conditions. At 60.9 ounces, the weight helps manage recoil while remaining portable enough for extended hunting trips.
