[QUOTE="Rifleman97, post: 2086302, member: 103996"] I’ve shot hundreds of rounds through a ported 3.5” 500s&w. I think it was the “emergency” kit or something, came with a yellow watertight case and some survival supplies. The recoil isn’t as bad as people make it out to be. That being said I wouldn’t want to shoot it all day but I’ve went out and shot 3 cylinders worth of 500 for fun. Wouldn’t want to shoot more than that. All that being said I don’t recommend it, but not for recoil reasons. But because I believe 460S&W is a far better firearm and cartridge. The ability to shoot smaller powered cartridges through it for practicing is a huge benefit, and anything a 500 can do a 460 does just as well. Imo. [/QUOTE]
