First Handi Rifle! Finally Found 500S&W! Need advice...!
« on: September 14, 2005, 05:13:57 AM »
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 :D
