I do not know anything about the .500 magnum, power wise, as to what force it could throw shot, but I will say this- what works best IMHO, is a tighter pattern. at least, thats what I go for -not to extremes- but with a cylinder bore I like the tightest patterning shell I can find. I don't intentionally want the shot to spread.
This is primarily because I want the entire mass of the shot to hit what I'm aiming at, for maximum effect.
And its also why I dont use a rifled slug barrel on my HD shotgun.
Of course, YMMV.
