455's at the range

50 AE desert eagle

I had a .44 Eagle here for a while, loaded down a bit using lead gas check bullets and Winchester ball powder. Had to balance the load, just part of a grain less and it wouldn't lock open on empty. Part of a grain more and it has a flash on firing. It handled the recoil well though, never used factory in it.

Tried few rounds out of a guy's 500 Smith

The big "X" frames are exactly that. Far too much, they can't handle themselves. They develop cracks in the barrel at the muzzle break.
