What about the 500 S&W Magnum?

From Wikipedia:

the [.44 Walker was ] most powerful commercially manufactured repeating handgun from 1847 until the introduction of the .357 Magnum in 1935

S&W .460 Magnum has higher velocity. 200gr JHP @ 2400 fps. Thats faster than a lot of rifles.

Same frame. 72 oz, empty, for the 8 3/8 barrel model.

I love my .460XVR.
