Developed by Dick Casull, Duane Marsh, and Jack Fullmer in 1958, 454 Casull Ammo is a powerful wildcat firearm cartridge. The design of this ammo is based on the .45 Colt case, so both .45 Schofield and .45 Colt cartridges can fit well in 454 Casull’s chamber. Because of the high chamber pressure of over 60,000 CUP, this cartridge uses a small rifle primer instead of pistol primer. 454 Casull Ammo comes in a .45 colt case that is about 0.10 inches in length. Bullet weight is around 240 to 300 grains and delivers a muzzle velocity of 1900 feet per second. These rounds can be loaded to a maximum of 65,000 psi pressure and the pressure when fired will be over 60,000 CUP.

About
The .475 Linebaugh Ammo is considered a very potent rimmed revolver bullet designed in the late 1980s in the United States. The .475 Linebaugh Ammo uses the .45-70 Government Ammo as its parent case and is greatly inspired by its design. The .45-70 Government Ammo was cut to 1.4 inches and loaded with a .475-inch diameter cartridge weighing from 320-grains to 440-grains. The .475 Linebaugh Ammo was made to accept .475 caliber Ammo which resulted in significantly different ballistic performance. The overall length of the .475 Linebaugh Ammo is 45mm. The bullet diameter of the .475 Linebaugh Ammo is 12.1mm. The 400-grain bullet load is the lightest variant of the .475 Linebaugh Ammo, which can travel at a velocity of 1,400 feet per second while creating an energy level of 1,741 ft.lbf. The .475 Linebaugh Ammo packs a lot of punch and stopping power, making it suitable for dangerous situations.
Manufacturer
The .475 Linebaugh Ammo design was based on the .45-70 Government Ammo, which was created and introduced into the market by John Linebaugh in the United States in 1988.
Uses
The .475 Linebaugh Ammo is primarily made to hunt down big game species and stop dangerous predators from jumping on you during your hunting session.
