All of your suggestions make good sense for the role you suggest EXCEPT Im not looking for the most ass. Im looking for something I can shoot, something thats bigger than a "conventional" carry handgun cartridge. I have magnums and a 454 Casull. Im sure 500JRH is a great round, Im just looking for something different. Then theres the current issue of getting ammo, specifically specialty cartridges. I have a source for 500SW brass and a saw...

Im NOT thinking of this as a hunting cartridge, rather a point blank stopping cartridge where even a 44mag would do. At THAT range, Im pretty sure the 500 Special would penetrate deep "enough" at bad breath range. If that doesnt work Ive considered the bottlenecks like a shortened 458 SOCOM.

Im hard pressed to know when Id ever be using it on anything bigger than Wild Boar or maybeeeee Black Bear climbing up my tree stand (another reason why it has to somewhat easier to control with one hand). Again NOT as a hunting cartridge; but as a stopping round meant for head shots at less than 10 feet. A number of years ago I had failed to stop a Boar with a 44mag BUT when he charged, I had an instant stop with a point blank hit (under 6 feet).

More to the point its a experiment meant to be fun. Thats why Im asking for help naming a baby
