The .460 Smith and Wesson Magnum cartridge has the same diameter as a .45 Colt or .454 Casull, and therefore revolvers chambered for it will also chamber the .454 Casull, .45 Colt, and .45 Schofield.

45 long colt and 45 colt are old style cowboy rounds usually fired from revolvers, longer than 44 mags. 45 ACP are usually fired from autos (unless using moon clips) and are short and fat. 45 GAP are slightly bigger than 45 ACP and have more recoil.
