Just curious, is this a trail/hunting gun or just for major kicks at the range ?
I know you are looking at the S&W 500, but the S&W 460 Magnum deserves a look too. One thing in the 460's favor is the ability to shoot 454 Casull AND 45 Colt in addition to 460. To me, that tremendous versatility seems pretty attractive. I hear shooting 45 Colt out of a .460 revolver feels like shooting 38 special target wadcutters out of a S&W K or L Frame!
Be advised though that ammo is pretty freakin expensive for all of the above mentioned cartridges .
