The Model 500 Revolver is a revolver produced by Smith & Wesson, based on the X-Frame.
The 500 is the “world’s most powerful production revolver,” firing the .500 S&W Magnum.
The 500 holds 5 rounds. The .500 Smith and Wesson calibre can fire at incredible velocities and deliver an unusually large quantity of kinetic energy – the most high-powered commercial round weighing 440 grains (28.5 g) has a muzzle energy of 2600 foot·pounds force (3.5 kJ). However handloaders have experimented with 500 grain bullets developing 3000+ foot·pounds (4.1 kJ) of muzzle energy.
