Ripp,
One thing I did learn being recoil shy, I will never buy a .500NE. Man, they go off at both ends.

I've taken 3 Elephant now with the 500NE and find it to be the absolute "Cats Ass". The recoil is stiff but very manageable. The key to being proficient with it is practice. Recoil tolerance is something you develop over time, loose with lack of practice, but regain easily once acquired. Just my opinion, but the 500NE is the best of both worlds being: significantly more energy than the 450 to 470 class weapons, similar weight and recoil.

Curious what you have for a 500??--

Agree with you, think that is the ultimate double..have a 470..but would rather have a 500..
