500 S&W MAGNUM SNUB NOSE REVOLVER !!!

I really like this gun, I just wish I could conceal it a little better, no I don't think that's going to work buddy here we go, that's much better. What's wrong with everyone? My name is Scott and you are watching Kentucky Ballistics. I'm always excited to get out here and shoot, but there are some days where I'm really excited to get out here and shoot normally, when we shoot a 500 Smith and Wesson Magnum, this is the firearm you see, this is a Smith Wesson Performance Center 500 Magnum with a 10 and a half inch barrel, well today we have something that will have a little more power this is the smith wesson performance center

magnum

500 with a three and a half inch barrel, so as you can imagine , this will have a little more power. more recoil than this one has, but I'm very excited to shoot it.

I have wanted to shoot this firearm since it was created. I have a lot of interesting things to shoot today. I want to thank Hybrid Concealed Holsters for sponsoring today. video, they are an American made product, they are veteran owned and I really really like their cases. If you use the coupon code kentucky21 you will get 21 off any case you purchase, so very generous for them, be sure to check them out. I'll leave a link in the description below. Now let's load this thing up and shoot for the first time, so we'll be loaded with underbrush ammo.

These are 350 grain jacketed hollow points. They are quite hot. and we have a steel defense target set up and we'll be about 10 meters back okay here we go that definitely has some recoil we've got four more shots left let's try a double action man oh my gosh we took down our steel target, come on, you gotta get up, be tough, okay, we've got two rounds left, oh okay, last shot, man, this thing, let's shoot the head popper real quick, our poor little table is staying strong, this one It's video number four for this table, maybe us.

I'll make it today, we'll see. I feel like bowling a little today, so now that we have some pins set up and we have a bowling ball that weighs about 12 pounds, let's go shoot the ball. destroy it, but also try to knock down those pins in the process and we're going to shoot the bowling ball with a subwood ammo, a 420 grain extreme penetrator. Hey, we got a strike, now let's hit these pins with some hard 500 grain pitches on some double action, oh man, those kick pretty hard, okay, pin number two, okay, I know what you want to see me do, I'll give it to you I'll give it, this is Underwood's 700 grain hard cast ammo, let's shoot it. of our

snub

nose

and let's see if we can break this block of concrete that's about three inches thick.

Whoa, whoa, that got some blowback. I am not going to lie. This is what happens with those hard 700 grain molds of a

snub

nose

. I don't think they have time to stabilize. I was aiming here and we hit too high, well, unfortunately, I think we're going to have to do it again. I was aiming for the center this time. I'm going to aim much lower, oh God. God yeah buddy, it's watermelon time, okay, let's try one-handed shooting. Wow, I'm pretty sure there's watermelon on the trees. Alright. Watermelon number two keeps falling. There are still pieces of watermelon falling.

Very good. Number Three. I'm falling in love with this. gun, so now we have about two liters set up and they will load us with double tap ammo. These are 275 grain xpb hollow points. These are solid copper. Oh wow, last man we haven't shot clay in a long time. Oh my God, not one fire extinguisher but two fire extinguishers. You know, I get tired of shooting the little one-gallon water jug, so today we have a five-gallon jug. We're using a hollow point, well, I don't think we're going to. find the bullet, there are a lot of little pieces in there so I'm pretty sure it broke so I broke the steel again.

We've been shooting a lot up close now I want to see if we can get some hits. distance, so we're about 50 meters back, let's see how we do, we hit it once, I'll be happy, I just want one hit, okay, I'm satisfied with that, maybe one more time, I don't know, let's take one more . time is fine, I'm done, I'm done once again once again one-handed one-handed at 50. that's it, I don't know about that we're we're pushing our limits now it's okay, now I'm really done, now I'm done so the last thing I want to do before I wrap up and show you the difference in recoil with different types of ammunition so we're going to start with something light and work our way up so first we have a 275 grain hollow point this is copper solid, then we have a 350 grain jacket on the hollow point, then we have a 400 grain hard casting, then we have a 500 grain hard casting and lastly we have the giant 700 grain hard casting, well, 275 grain hollow. point good, 350 grain hollow point, okay, 400 grain hard casting, ugh, it's a lot harder, right now, the 500 grain hard casting, oh, it's harder than the 400 grain, let's make sure we don't have a crimp jump or anything before this last and final one. 700 grain hard casting is much worse than all the others.

Well, that concludes today's video. I had a lot of fun shooting this gun. You probably think I'm crazy for saying that, but I like big caliber guns and I don't mind recoil. If you are a beginner, I would not recommend this gun. You need to get some experience before trying to shoot something like this, but if you've been shooting for a while and can handle a little recoil, I think you'll enjoy it. My hand doesn't hurt. My wrist doesn't hurt. Now I can tell that the muscles in my hand and the muscles in my forearm are fatigued from shooting a lot, but they don't hurt and I don't think they will hurt.

Honestly, I'm looking forward to the next time I get to shoot this gun tomorrow because I had a blast.
