I was responding to this comment; "If you're going to go X-frame, make it a 500 S&W Magnum !" by pointing out the 500 was the least practical/useful of the 3 options available in the X-frame, not saying the 500 was useless.What you said in the first place was "You get the .500 S&W just to brag about having one, the .460 for serious use, and the .350 for serious use with less recoil.". "Just to brag" would indicate no other reason but, while I think there are other reasons than bragging for the 500SW; at this point, I believe the horse is dead and we (me) have hijacked @Mgderf 's thread more than is necessary...Sorry Mr. Mgderf.
That just "looks like fun!"
You really didn't answer my question as to why the 500 isn't serious but that's ok as I see this discussion akin to which of these two hammers is best to hit a 16d framing nail with.
Personally, both work just fine for me....

Pretty sure this type of post was banned…… or was that only if they were holding fishing poles?
