"In addition to performing at higher speeds and pressures than the .500 Linebangh Long, the .500 S&W also differs in having a case length of 1.625" as compared to 1.610", and also uses a true .500" bullet rather than the .511" size .500 Linebaugh and Linebaugh Longs utilize."

I'd rather have a hotrodded Bisley. The S&W is almost big enough that you need a tripod and a sling. It's just too big to pack around.

I got to shoot a cylinder full of these out of SW's X-frame about a month after it first came out. After 3 rounds, I had to set it down. Too much horsepower for my wrists to handle. Fun to shoot, though.

Good article.
I'm at the age where I like big bullets but slow comfortable ones. Loved the recoil and roar at one time but now that my hearing and etc are gone it's time to slow down.

Will prolly get one eventually though - from a recoil sensitive yupster.
