What powder and how many grains? Iā€™m guessing that will be a compressed load.
Damn is all I can say.... and I thought I loaded some hot.44Magnum for my S&W 6ā€ 629 and Marlin lever action.

This 500 has got to be a kick in the pants... Or elsewhere...
Eagerly awaiting pictures/video.

Its a Lot of Powder.............That's all you get...............I tell you anything further have to make you disappear, then disappear someone else...................and pretty soon no one is left............ HEH HEH..........

AA 1680 is a few steps slower than WW 296. Between WW 296 and RL 7. It can be used in some rifles, I used it in a few 2 inch RUM cases. But it has one hell of a fire ball, so I moved to CFE Black for those type cartridge.

You can blend WW 296 and AA 1680 for some interesting results as well.......But in the end, blended WW 296 and Lilgun makes a better blend.

The last time I did this for @BatteryOaksBilly was March 2014. It was a 4 inch gun, but 1 inch of that was compensator. In reality, 3 inches of 500 S&W. I first test the 340 CEB Raptor it runs 1641 fps, but is a bit sticky, so I drop the charge.
The next test it ran 1574 fps, and not pleasant at all.

I moved to the 400 gr Solids. I had 5 rounds loaded. I fired 3 and almost dropped the gun and could not hold it any longer. I had pulled a tendon in my right hand. It was 6 months before I could fire a 22 LR Handgun. The tendon did not grow back properly, and is still extended, one can see it and feel it. Today the heaviest revolver load I can shoot is 45 Colt at 950/1000 fps. I can shoot 45 ACP no issues. But nothing heavier. After those last 3 rounds the 400 gr Solids read 1420 fps, from a 3 inch gun.

Now I will leave it up to you guys, you can have all the fun you want. I have everything, and will start putting them together tomorrow..........................

I am sticking to big bore rifles........ Thank you Very Much.

Maybe we can get you interested in the 327mag. Its not 30 cal and its a fun little cartridge. šŸ˜‰

It would be interesting to see what you could get that little cartridge to do.
 
This is where I get to "CROW" a little...how many people can stop a multi million dollar operation to get some ammo loaded and delivered in less than 24 hours????
Thanks Ole Pard...now we get to watch the results....just as soon as somebody stops by for a visit!!!!

Mike worked up a load for 32 H&R Mag that is just a Doll Baby. A 100 grain full wadcutter running 1,000FPS outa 4 inch gun. That thing will crack a turtle's shell in a jiffy. Just got a 4 5/8 Ruger Single Six offa here that should really like that load.
Mike can make a 327 Mag do crazy stuff but it's just not needed in these fine little guns. Great walkabout guns.

I saw you get that little ruger. I'm jealous. I think a 327 Mag would make a great little small, medium, possible deer round. I'm going to make a 327 barrel for my nef soon
 
I sure hope I did not get that load data mixed up between 50 B&M Super Short and 500 S&W??????????????? They are nearly identical in size and all.........................Hmmmmm?:eek:
