Bought it new in 2003, sight unseen. When the 500 S&W was first introduced. Had to wait a few months for the revolver. Normally load 440 gr Cast Performance bullets over AA#9 for about 1400 fps.

I only shoot it a few times a year. Don't think I've ever shot more than 100 rounds through it in a year. Really ought to take it hunting someday. Keep saying that, for about 15 years now...
