Been lurking-not much posting. All my Smiths are wheel guns. Have a 4" 686, 4" 25 in nickle, 4" (now, thanks to barrel purchased from JGalt) 629 and just picked up a 4" 500.
Shot the 500 today with my own handloads of 39 gr lilgun under a 350 gr. bullet. Recoil was not near as bad as I expected, but this is 3 grains under hogdons max loading listing.
I will be watching reloading forum for more recipes for the 500.
