Fired a SW 500 Magnum with a 4" barrel yesterday. The power was unbelievable. I couldn't believe I felt the shockwave hit me in the face.
A very nice gentleman next to me and my buddy on the range let us try it out. He also let me try his SW 460 with 460 load and 454 casull load.
He's now got me hooked and I'll be buying a 500 very shortly
