New Factory Load for S&W 500???

Heard that Hornady was in the process of making a factory load for the S&W 500 that would deliver a 500 grain bullet.  Has anyone else heard this???

Hi Guys,
I just got a new Lock Stock and Barrel catalogue yesterday.  They list a Lee 440g gascheck mold for the 50 cal..  They also have a new listing for Hornady 50 cal gaschecks.  I guess I know what I'll be shooting in mine. :grin:
Later,
TnNuc
