    Cartridge: 500 S&W
    Weight: 180gr
    COAL: 1.975"
    Bullet Length: 0.601"
    Bullet Diameter: 0.500"
    Barrel Length: 18" for the AR10 and 6.5" for the Revolver

    Some screaming velocities on that. Just a warning, it'll over expand and blow the petals off within the first few inches on the target, the remaining slug will penetrate a long ways.
