About
The .500 S&W Special Ammo is a high-powered, large cartridge designed and developed for revolvers in 2004. The parent case used to create the .500 S&W Special Ammo was none other than the .500 S&W Ammo and is a shorter version of the latter. The .500 S&W Special Ammo's load was drastically reduced so that the size could also be made small. The primary intention behind the development of the .500 S&W Special Ammo is to allow the hunters to shoot a less punishing and torturing bullet with similar muzzle energy as the .44 Magnum Ammo. There is a slight chance of guns being developed to allow the usage of the .500 S&W Special Ammo specifically and enhance its performance even further. The 350-grain bullet variant of the .500 S&W Special Ammo can travel at a velocity of 1,250 feet per second while creating an energy level of 1,215 ft.lbf.
Manufacturer
The .500 S&W Special Ammo was designed and developed by Cor-Bon/Glaser at the request of Smith & Wesson in 2004.
Uses
The primary purpose of the .500 S&W Special Ammo is to yield the same results as the .500 S&W Ammo but at a more manageable recoil and less punishing muzzle blast.
