500 Smith & Wesson vs Frozen Turkeys
Bearing Arms ^ | 23 Nov, 2015 | Bob Owens

One .500 Smith & Wesson Magnum. One Underwood Ammunition bullet loaded with a 350-grain Xtreme Penetrator bullet moving at roughly 1,850 feet per second. Five frozen turkeys.

Sounds like fun!

A friend used lard in the cylinders of his Navy black powder revolver to prevent chain firing.

I have a high-speed camera (300 frames per second) which creates a nice, slow-motion video.

A few years back I brought it to a local outdoor shooting range, while another fellow brought his S&W 500 and a watermelon.

One bullet plus one ex-watermelon results in a slow-motion video with what seems like an endless procession of watermelon pieces raining down from the sky. Great fun...

I can't believe he sat that nickle plated beauty on a rough scratchy cinder-block like that.

Use hollowpoints and dab your bacon grease into the cavity. That way it won’t mess up your firearm and it will expand into a larger caliber.

Why carry a .500? ,,, Because they don’t make a .501
Anything over .50 is a destructive device according to ATF
