Load data for caliber ".454 Casull Magnum"
The .454 Casull Magnum is a powerful handgun cartridge developed in the early 2000s by Dick Casull, an American firearms designer. It is based on the .45 Colt cartridge but is longer and more powerful, with a higher velocity and greater energy.

The .454 Casull Magnum is typically used for hunting and personal defense, as its high velocity and energy make it effective against large game animals and dangerous predators. However, its recoil is also significant, and it can be difficult to handle for inexperienced shooters.

C.I.P.
The Commission internationale permanente pour l'épreuve des armes à feu portatives ("Permanent International Commission for the Proof of Small Arms" – commonly abbreviated as C.I.P.) is an international organisation which sets standards for safety testing of firearms. (The word portatives ("portable") in the name refers to the fact the C.I.P. tests small arms almost exclusively; it is ordinarily omitted from the English translation of the name.) As of 2015, its members are the national governments of 14 countries, of which 11 are European Union member states. The C.I.P. safeguards that all firearms and ammunition sold to civilian purchasers in member states are safe for the users.
To achieve this, all such firearms are first proof tested at C.I.P. accredited Proof Houses. The same applies for cartridges; at regular intervals, cartridges are tested against the C.I.P. pressure specifications at the ammunition manufacturing plants and at C.I.P. accredited Proof Houses.
