OK I just saw the 500 S&W BBL in the classified that is one fine pop a wheelie and ride it through third gear rig. It is a little bit much for my blood but I did see a factory 15” bbl on the net for about $220.00 so it got me thinking. If I am going to move to a rifle caliber I want an XP again not an Encore. But an Encore in 500 S&W that should be a 200yard gun yes? Short of slinging a VW bug with a catapult that rig would work for just about anything on the planet. I think it would be handier in about a 12” length. Does anyone have one of these they shoot a lot? What is the accuracy like and is the recoil within reason. This has got my gears turning. The one in the classified would be the ticket--- I think it would bring new meaning to the “Hey ya’ll watch this” phrase.


If it jams force it! If it breaks it needed replacing anyway.

I've shot J.D. Jones' original 10" barreled gun. I'm no stranger to recoil. That one kicks like hell.
