Yes 450BM Yes...Bearcreek makes ammo - for the 450 they make some HOT ammo. Muzzle velocity is 2550 for 240 grain. Ridiculous ft/lbs. Look up Bearcreek Balistics.
I’ve been set up since a half hour before first light. All I’ve seen is one squirrel, the only life form besides myself stupid enough to be out this morning. Coldest day of the year so far. It may not be cold by northern standards but here it’s miserable. I don’t really have the gear for it so I have around $20 worth of various Hot Hands products placed strategically.
I think I'd be getting out of that tree as soon as the sun started melting all that. Good way to get soaked. Good luck!
We do that up north too, even with the right clothing, or we use heater vests and battery hand warmers. I'm a northerner and I'm not sure I'd go out at 14 degrees to sit in a stand.
