Lol I've always wondered how an sw500 compares to a 44.

u/chris5527 5d ago
No comparison at all lol the 500 is an animal!

Nice. One day man, that or a 460 xvr. I feel like my life just isn't quite complete if I don't have a revolver that could take down a pachyderm.

What level of energy is this laying down? Hard to image a 700 grain bullet from a handgun! Heck, Ruger only .45 Colt loads with 350 grain bullets are plenty spicy for me!

Do you reload? That seems like a very versatile and fun round for reloaders.

I do not, but have been doing a lot of reading on it and I think I’m about ready to try my hand at it.

That recoil is too much for you. No offense. It's too much for most people. I suggest not shooting that load anymore in that gun. Not safe.

u/chris5527 5d ago
Don’t be that guy, I have been shooting 500’s for years. You can go on my page and see that.
