We're sure tired of buying the other companies slugs, is Alaska the only place where the S&W .500 is popular?

Actually we have a couple different bullets in the hopper for the .500, but not yet available. Hadn't planned on breaking out of the 400 grain class bullet..... but if there's enough demand we certainly can make it happen! Working on 350g and 400g at the present time.

I'm all ears however to demand.... let me know!

God Bless,

I don't know about the 350 or 400 gr but I do know that my 700gr WFNGC are whoppers and have a wallop when they hit .Cast two at a time and boy a 20 pound pot goes real fast . By the way I live in Alaska !!!!

Rick, Where'd you get your 700 gr mould?

I had Dan at Mountain moulds make this for me. He did a outstanding job . It is a double 700gr gc WFNGC cavity which throws great bullets . This is my second mould from Dan . The first one was a 575gr gc WFNGC single cavity .They do have a wallop when you launch one of these pills down range . Loaded rounds are impressive . I have a friend that bought my last batch of 575gr and he is getting great results at 100 , I have them down to a 3" group at 100 , he is in the testing mode on the 700 grainers he will let me know what he comes up with . For the 700gr I currently use 25gr WC820 vel 1100 and 29.2 gr IMR4198 vel 1033 .I guess you can tell that I really like this big smith .
