.500 S&W Mag Ammo Prices

The absurd magnificent beast that Smith & Wesson unleashed in 2003 to reclaim the biggest handgun crown once and for all. This thing eats bears for breakfast and rearranges your hand's understanding of recoil in the process. There is no practical reason most people need it and that has never stopped a single soul from wanting one. Pure American excess in the best way.

Loads run 300 to 500 grain and everything about it is enormous including the price. This is dollars per round territory in small boxes. Nobody shoots this caliber casually so buying is a deliberate and occasionally painful act.
