- The .460 Steyr is a centerfire rifle cartridge developed by the Steyr Arms company in Austria. It was introduced in 2000 and is designed for use in high-powered, long-range hunting rifles.
The .460 Steyr cartridge uses a bottlenecked case with a bullet diameter of 11.7mm and an overall case length of 72mm. It typically fires a heavy, 500-grain bullet at a muzzle velocity of around 2,400 feet per second, delivering high energy and stopping power at long ranges.
The .460 Steyr cartridge is a specialized cartridge that is not widely used, but it has gained a reputation as an effective and accurate cartridge for hunting large and dangerous game such as bear, moose, and African plains game. It is also used in long-range target shooting competitions, where its flat trajectory and high accuracy make it a popular choice among serious shooters.
