Gun Descriptions

About The .500 JRH Ammo is a cartridge designed to be used by revolvers. The .500 JRH Ammo was manufactured and made available commercially in 2005. Initially, the .500 JRH Ammo was created to fit into the new model 83 revolver introduced by the Freedom Arms. The parent case used to make the .500 JRH Ammo was the .500 S&W Magnum Ammo, and experts say that the .500 JRH Ammo can be used in the chambers designed for the .500 S&W Magnum Ammo when the shortened length is adjusted. The .500 JRH Ammo is all about raw penetration and stopping power. If you are in need of something to take down large animal species or protect yourself from dangerous predators in the wild, then this should be your choice of the bullet to take with you on your hunting trip. The overall length of the .500 JRH Ammo is 1.8 inches, and the bullet diameter of this cartridge is 0.526 inches. The 425-grain bullet variant of the .500 JRH Ammo can travel at a velocity of 1,350 feet per second. Manufacturer The .500 JRH Ammo was designed and produced by Jack Huntington when he used a dummy created in 1993 into an actual bullet.

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.
