Post by: b23 on May 12, 2022, 12:34:34 AM: I had a 4in 500 for a long time that I just sold a few months ago. It was fun but kind of a novelty too. They are literally a freakin hand cannon and you better be holding on tight when it goes off cause they are a handful of thunder.

Post by: Caseknife on May 18, 2022, 07:02:37 AM: Shooting them with both hands is not too bad, but boy, shooting them one-handed kind of makes the web of your hand a bit tender.

Post by: Rob on May 18, 2022, 07:21:43 AM: I recall a "Myth Busters" where they demonstrated the dangerous gasses that escape in the gap between the barrel and cylinder. They built a "hand" out of raw chicken wings and wrapped it over the gap on a 500 SW.

the hand was destroyed, bones were broken. It was impressive.

Sure are fun to shoot!

Post by: Farmer72 on May 18, 2022, 02:53:01 PM: Come up to my area and I will let you shoot my 460 S&W. I might even be able to borrow a buddies 2.5" 500 S&W to try out.

I can probably dig up some rounds loaded with 700 grain cast bullets. Would be fun in a short barreled Xframe👍😎

Did you guys hear about the guy who was shooting salmon south of Olympia and had a round ricochet and hit him in the head? Yeah pretty sure they didn’t ticket him for illegal method of take. :bdid:

https://www.kiro7.com/news/ricocheted-bullet-hits-man-trying-hunt-salmon-rifl/246620623/

"He's going to lose the sight of one eye, I think," she told KIRO 7 Eyewitness News South Sound Bureau Chief Richard Thompson.

"What he did is illegal," Elwin said. "That is not an acceptable way to go fishing."

The state Department of Fish and Wildlife is joining the investigation.

The maximum penalty for shooting a fish with a gun is one year in jail
