This is S
& Ws new cartridge for the 500 frame revolver. Ammo is by COR
BON. Think of it as a 454 Casull magnumized. The first factory ammo
will use a 200 grain Barnes X bullet at 2300 and some change FPS from
the 10" barreled revolver. The same ammo does 2650 FPS from a 14" SSK
Encore. Recoil is very mild for such a powerful cartridge. 454 and 45
Colt ammo can be used in the same chamber.
I got over 2100 FPS with a 300 grain jacketed bullet first try in the
Encore. I think there is another 1--200 FPS there with the 300
grain bullet.
Barrels are now available
from SSK.
