    Scott, I just want to say that it's amazing you can make jokes about your neck/scar. While no one is denying what happened, you didn't let it define you, and kept on. Even to this day, that always encourages me and gives me something to look to as an example.

      I’m sure it’s easier to see in person, but sometimes they say the wound track is “crazy” in a piece of ballistic gel but in the video it’s barely visible.
      Another idea I had is using something as a probe. When they are trying to see if a bullet went all the way through a ballistic dummy, they could just poke a stick or something into the hole and see where it comes out the back of the target.

    In 1978 Guns & Ammo ran a story on a massive revolver built by Bruce Woods. He used a shortened 460 Weatherby Magnum case and called it the .457 Super Magnum. If memory serves me correctly, he was getting rifle level performance out of this hand cannon. I think the revolver itself was called the Woods White Horse Magnum. He also made one in 45-70. I may still have the magazine in my collection.

      Why? I can stand some recoil but I don't understand why people like punishing themselves. Maybe it's because I started out hunting with a muzzleloader but I'm a fan of placement over insane power. I'd rather have a gun in which I can accurately place a shot every time versus something that has ridiculous power. More middle of the line something like a 6.5-300 vs a 416. Plenty of power and easier to shoot. Like McManus talked about in his books I don't need a gun that will allow me to clap my shoulders. BTW if you haven't read those do yourself a favor and pick them up, they are hilarious. Laughed so hard reading on in a doctors office once that everyone moved to the other side of the waiting area from me. Still makes me chuckle today and that was 30 years ago.

It is not to be taken too seriously. Given the price of ammunition these days, I rarely shoot anything remotely exotic. I do prefer heavy-for-caliber projectiles, but not punishing recoil. I don't shoot creatures that are a half mile or further away. Bullet placement and penetration are and will always remain king and queen.

    hey scott, if it makes you feel any safer, the 500 bushwacker is based on the .375 ruger, which itself is capable of handling 62k psi, meanwhile 500SW does around 60k, and usually speaking whenever you taper/neck down a cartridge you increase the pressure when compared to a straight wall, so the 500 BW might have a chamber pressure equal if not even lower than those 62k
    as a side note, that cartridge is absoletly ridiculous, i'm so happy you brought it on the channel😂

      375 ruger??? I'd hafta research that but, right off the bat that doesn't seem right at all. 375 ruger is is a bigger parent case and is necked. This bushwacker is a straight wall, and 50 cal. More along the lines of a 458 Lott as parent case

    per Wikipedia "The .500 Bushwhacker is designed to operate at comparable chamber pressures to the .500 S&W Magnum. Since the case is simply a lengthened version of the .500 S&W Magnum, the cylinder wall thickness remains the same on a firearm converted to the larger cartridge. Accordingly, the same pressure level can safely be maintained in firearms capable of accommodating the additional cartridge length."
