Never had the 500 S&W MAG in a revolver but I did have it in an H&R HAndi Rifle . Gun was kinda rainbowy in tragectory !

I had a revolver in 460 S&W MAG and a couple in 480 Ruger . They did very well actually better then I could hold them for the most part .

I had a couple of the Savage Stryker bolt action hand rifles in 260 7-8 and 300 WSM . Killed a deer with the Stryker 7-08 , thats the only deer I killed with anything close to resembling a handgun .

Milton about 15 years ago I got hung up on Marlin leveractions and cast bullets . Since that time I make a point to kill a few every year with lever actions shooting my home cast bullets . This year I took three . One year I killed I think a dozen deer and all were done in with 444 cast bullets .

The cast thing gets me going every year and this handloaded buckshot thing in my old side bys is kinda neat as well .

I killed a two deer one year with old Marlin's from 1896 and 1897 again with my home cast bullets that was kinda neat .

Other then that I'm kinda hung up on the variouse 6.5mm and 7mm cartridges in Ruger #1's or bolt actions . Although at some point I have all intentions of getting a Blaser K-95 single shot with barrels in 6.5x65R RWS and 6.5x57R RWS .
