I have almost done the same thing to my Kimber.

Quoted:
A may just have found a use for that Norinco 1911 I bought a while back. https://www.460rowland.com/ If you want to do it. buy if for cheaper, and get higher quality from the people who designed it. Clark Customs I have one and I love it. Its a handful for sure. Georgia Arms makes reasonably priced ammo for them too. Been very reliable with the correct springs and mags. Mags were a challenge. CM 10 rd mags work flawlessly. |

IDK how I haven't heard of this but I'm so building one of these on one of my spare frames.
Pretty cool you can shoot 45ACP out of them with a spring swap at the most. |

Current conventional wisdom says that all pistol calibers do about the same thing against humans in a self defense situation, I'll bet the .460 rowland would be an exception to that rule.
 That would make one hell of an EDC gun. 
As an exercise in becoming better with my gun I was using 1 handgun for carry and also all of my hunting for about 10 years. I looked really hard at the .460 rowland for a couple seconds before deciding I was getting a little ridiculous. I ended up going with a 10mm for my purposes. |

Anyone know of any reason I could not use my 45acp dies with a lee factory crimp die to finish it?

Nope they're compatible from what I see. |

If you only want to keep one bullet size around the Rowland makes sense. My son has a G21 and the Rowland would be a good idea for him as he wants to reload someday. |

Recoil? why is the vaunted .44 Mag not more popular? HINT: Recoil and follow up shot. |

I just got the 460Rowland kit for my Smith & Wesson M&P45 and love it. Much more manageable and power than shooting 10mm out of my Glock 30/29. This is my new woods gun.

It looked like a drill bit went through the deer. The wound channel did not exhibit the larger size like a rifle round. Now you could always cripple a rifle round by using an FMJ. |
