I've had a Rossi Stainless w/fiber optic open sights in 454 for a couple of years now. Not had an opportunity to shoot anything w/it but targets yet, but it's a great handling little rifle that does a good job of taming some of the heavier loads. Accuracy for me runs about 2.5 inches at 100 yards, but that's more me than the rifle. I haven't chronoed the loads, but it seems to be getting a little more of of the shells.
