I've got a three-screw in 41mag, 4 5/8 barrel.It's all the wheel gun I care to shoot.
You don't have to hit anything with it. Either, the sound blast will totally knock your target unconscious or the wind from the bullet going by so fast will give your target pneumonia and it will die anyway!!
It ain't handgrenades and it ain' horseshoes, but "almost" will probably do the job with this one.
".500 LIMBAUGH Long" is a real Rush.
That's sweet. With hot handloads, I can't think of anywhere you'd be undergunned. And best of all, you can carry that all day comfortably, where you couldn't the S&W 500.

I understand. The one in the photo is a Vaquero in .45 Colt. I love it. The Dillon press cranks out 200+ rounds per hour. It is a fun shooter.
Yeah, I'll be staying with my .44 mag and "hand-punisher" 14" Contender in .375 JDJ. They get the job done from small to big.....
Interesting article, though.
Sako
Is that photo with the bullets, showing them at their actual size??
This is what I use, chambered in .45 Long Colt. Has control and knockdown power. But man, that .50 S&W Magnum does give me wood.....
"But man, that .50 S&W Magnum does give me wood...."
LOL!
Dang! Me too. Just don't want to shoot it (much). LOL!
"I suggest renaming it to the ".500 LIMBAUGH Long"."
No, I don't think so.
Me too, and evidently so does New England Firearms. They've just brought out their single-shot with a 22" barrel in that caliber. Runs around $300.00. Don't know what I could do with it but I'm gonna get one.
I wrote H&R Firearms that they ought to chamber their "Buffalo" rifle in the .500 - a poor man's "Sharps Big Fifty" if you will.
I would like to see ruger or one of the other gun makers come out with a carbine on the order of the .44 mag carbine in this cartridge. It would be a great short range gun for hunting deer in the brush in Northern CA.
Do you feel lucky? Do you?
I noticed the date on your photo. What did you do? File your return and decide to take some photos of your guns on the following day?
LOL
