wwillson Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 I just can't imagine that I would ever even want to shoot one. I think all I would get is a flinch that I've worked so hard to avoid.Wayne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarryinIN Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 I have no desire for a 500 S&W. A Ruger Bisley 45 Colt or 44 Mag might be nice, and there are some nice Casulls out there, but that is the limit and beyond for me. I've never kept a .44 Mag revolver long, and haven't had any for a while. I wouldn't mind a S&W Scandium 329 though. It would serve as a 44 Spl for me.Strangely, while I generally don't care much for pistol caliber carbines, I've had a couple of 44 Mag rifles and liked them a lot. I have a Ruger 77/44 now that I shoot a lot. Go figure.Now a 500 S&W in a rifle- That I've thought about. I've looked at an empty 500 S&W case at the gun shop with a gleam in my eye. A lever action or a smaller bolt action might be neat. I have an old Small Ring Mauser action that I look at from time to time and picture in 500 (or 35 Remington).

Trapper Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 The only exposure I've had to this round is a friend that has an Encore chambered for it. I hate to admit to being a wuss but that's a little much for me. I see no need for such an animal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pablo Posted June 8, 2011 Report Share Posted June 8, 2011 Some yaywho was firing one at the range last month. A little warning would have been nice. I was bending down at the gear bench and ducked and pooped at the same time.I'm not sure how Hickok45 gets any footing standing on all those casings. Good lord.
