Read a good review someone linked to Gun Blast. Was a bit concerned with the described muzzle flip of the Ross 500. I have shot the S & W 500 4” the most with 440 grain Carbons (substantial recoil of the “+P”) and did not have any issues with that combination.
How about muzzle blast difference between the 4” and 6 ½”? They seem to be a different configuration. Flip difference between the Ross 500 and the S & W 6 ½” ?
Any comparisons to this would be great.

If I were you, I wouldn't worry about muzzle blast. I always wear double ear protection when shooting my Model 500s even when shooting reduced loads. That double ear protection not only saves the ears but reduces the perceived recoil. I never notice blast with good plugs and ear muffs on. Don
