S&W 500 - Bullseye stance.

I've shot a S&W 500 and those weren't factory rounds. If they were, she would have a front site dent in her forehead after the 1st round. That is a painful gun to shoot, even two handed.

That's a long, heavy, ported revolver, lots of weight out front to help tame the recoil. And look at the musculature in her arms. I've shot the S&W 500 offhand like that, didn't embed the sight in my forehead. Did have more rise than she did, but not a whole lot more. I would guess that she had practiced, practiced, practiced in order to shoot like that for the video.

Padded shooting glove helped a bit.

Dat thing sure ain't recoiling much...

 

Here's my first shot from my four incher with my *somewhat stout* 700 grain loads...

 

 

I killed an elk 'bout 4 years back with 350 grainers in my 8 3/8"er. ;)

I call BS on that one. My light 350gn hand loads recoil 10 x more than what she's shooting let alone my heavy 500gn loads. Those look like stout .38 light 357 at best. My wife saw that and rolled her eyes. Shots 1 and 4 look especially weak.

I agree - gotta be light loads. Not near enough recoil for them to be factory
