G'day all, I had my #1 500NE out today for the first time. Having been fitted with the heavy .500 barrel it weighs in at just under 10lb. I was a bit short on loading data and started off with what is probably a pretty mild load of 90gr of ADI 2209 (=IMR 4350, W 760) pushing a Woodleigh 570gr RN/SN
I only loaded a dozen rounds for starters just to try it out. With the open sights and standing with just a a steadying side rest against a tree, I was grouping a little over 2" at 50 yards. Not being sure what to expect I started out with a shoulder pad in place, but after a couple of shots I was confident enough to rely on the recoil pad only. The only discomfort was from my middle finger copping a hiding from the trigger guard. I am off to work on the other side of Oz for the next couple of weeks, so I will start doing a bit more with the loads when I get home.

All the best and good shooting, Ian.
