Author Topic: First Handi Rifle! Finally Found 500S&W! Need advice...! (Read 380 times)

Found a Handi 500 S&W in Florida and should have it next week! Just curious who has one and if you care to share how it shoots, recoil, and load data if ya have any?

I plan on buying dies, brass, & bullets when I get it and hope to give a range report in 2 weeks!

This is my first handi rifle, any suggestions on cleaning, tweaking
or break-in on these rifles?

Tks JS
