I love my 6 inch .500 smith and wesson! I fired it with 400 some grain loads and its not all that bad. I want to carry it as a back up to hunting grizzlys with a rifle, bow hunting deer in grizzly country, and hiking in grizzly country without a rifle.
My question is are hard cast the best penetrators? Can I run a 600 or 700 grain without losing penetration and range as well as having the most knock down power?
I do shoot a bit of mid range with my revolvers. I want a round that can shoot straight to 100-150 yards.
What rifle does this revolver compare to?
