Anticipation of my new Lipsey 480 coming, I got to craving some big bore shooting. I dressed my 4" 500 up in it's "best little dress" and loaded some shells.
I have not seen a 500 made up like this...but I had the scope. mount, and grips, so I decided to play around a little. It may look a little odd, but it shoots real nice configured like this.
First up was some 350 Berry's. These were fun to shoot. Nice and easy but still quite effective at 1218fps.
Thought I'd try some fast-movers so I packed a case full of powder behind the 300gr FXT's,,,HOLY crap theses things kicked!!!! The little FXT racers hit 1920fps in 3 inches!!. I canceled my subscription to that madness in just 3 shots. LOL Not fun with wood grips.
Think I'll stick to the slow(er) rounds from now on....Maybe get some CEB Raptors for her and lighten the load..lol
