I haven't shot one yet, but did hold one a few days ago. Felt much better balanced than I thought it would. I think I am going to buy the Raging Bull in .480 though. it's half the price of the smith (half the power too!) and a full $150 less than the .454
The shop I visited did have one of the .500 comp guns that Ranger has though and it sold pretty quick. A local repo guy bought it to carry on a daily basis! I pity the fool that tries to take their car back!
The .500 isn't for me, but I like to see the envelope pushed. I really want Marlin to chamber this in their Guide Gun though! I'll stand in line for it!
