450 rounds of full tilt .500s will do that to you! Put about another thousand through the p-18 para 9mm after shooting the 500 you have to look to make sure theres holes in the target with the 9 it feels like its squibbing every round. It sure feels good to shoot two good guns. The .500 is a real shooter it shoots every load it put in it under 2 inches and the para went 1000+ without cleaning and without a burp. Now ive got to clean them. Are you hearing me Steve. Yes i mean hose them off!!

That is not a beating, it is recoil therapy. :-D

Lloyd, don't come in here looking for sympathy. You deserve every bit of that abuse just for making us all look at the photos of that new 500.
Do you know how painful it is to try and decide which body part to sell to get one of those. :wink:

Yeah I fell your pain Lloyd!

I am glad to hear that the little bugger shoots so nice. I have to pull my Sheriff Vaquero out of the safe an shoot some full house loads though it to relate if that is possible.

Have you seen the video on GunBlast that shows one of the guys shooting the new FA .500? I have to imagine that your gun's recoil is on par with that one. Check it out if you havn't. It's kinda cool.

Lloyd, I've been thinking, if those 500's are too much for you I'd be willing to trade you even up for a pair of 45's.

In trade for:

And to sweeten the deal I'll throw in this beauty I bought my wife (after she sights it in of course) maybe when Lisa gets crabby you can let her try it.
