500 S&W
« on: May 16, 2007, 09:29:50 AM »
Hi guys, I was wondering what type of accuracy you have been getting from the 500 S&W. I have been tossing the idea around of picking one up myself. Are any of you putting scopes on them or using peep sights? Thanks, Jason

Mine will shoot big cloverleafs 1.5" to 2" which is nearly all shots touching at 50-75 yards from loads ranging mild to wild. I shoot a scope sometimes with mild to medium loads but only open sights or red dots on the full power 440 gr loads.

i just picked one up today.  i was surprised when it had fiber optic sights on it.  i was also wondering what kind of factory loads would be good for deer hunting.  also, what's the trajectory?  thanks.
