S&w 500 useing berrys 350 gr fn
Just some info on a load i use for the s&w 500. I got real tired of sting that my 500 has with over the counter ammo.working with a few powders heres one i just really like. Useing berrys plated 350 gr fn seated to 1.200 alliant 2400 magnum hand gun powder at 30.6 grain. Fed large rifle primer. 1.400 to 1.450 f.p.s which is pushing berry to its upper limit but still very safe. I have loaded it 34.6 gr at 1.550 f.p.s but shots were high group spread 3 to 4 inches it now feels like a hot 44 mag but smoother. It still has a huge bang great muzzel flash ( if your into that sort of thing) and groups at 1 inch or less at 40 feet. Its a ball to shoot now. Have been thru 500 rounds or so no problems.
