Its angry. Especially at $3. A pull That is why I say a guy with one, should be reloading. With revolvers, recovering the brass is not even hard. It's a buck and a half a shot with factory loads. What's you guess about reloading, assuming you recycled the brass a few times and were buying readymade bullets? You will run into the same issue with bullets as Tim was referencing, small production runs but a buck a pop would not surprise me for a performance bullet. Cast bullets should be a lot cheaper., maybe 30-40 cents, way less if you cast your own.. Primers and powder are pennies a shot. These hand cannons remind me of the chopper (motorcycles) that were popular in the 70s. When I questioned the tiny gas tank, the guy said "if you go that far you will want to get off anyway". I doubt anyone is going to shoot a lot of full power loads. I looked a little and there are some "cowboy" loads that push out subsonic cast bullets and should shoot fairly easy. The full power load is at least 3-4 times the energy. I pay about 30 cents a round for decent factory 158 grain .357 MAG rounds, similar to what I pay for .223 rifle ammo. That seems enough to spend on ammo to me. ![]() The .500 S&W is not your regular plinker. It is like comparing a Bugatti to a Camry Sounds like it would be a great gun for someone who is constantly seeking attention. Gosh, it would be very photogenic, especially if the photo included lots of ammo. You should get one and tape it onto the side of the guitar case you take to your Old White Boys Hootenannies. |
