Come on it wouldn't be that bad, well it would, but the half the fun of big bores is the recoil!!! Obviously it's completely over the top and inpracticle, as the .500S&W is all you really need for hunting and the 500 would probably be far more accurate. But the 600NE is BIGGER, and that's all that counts in most cases. If you want to complain about big handguns then this is the one you should be complaining about... (I'm not quite sure if it counts as a handgun though)

The world's largest revolver weighs 45 kg (99.2 lb), has a length of 1.26 m (49.6 in), a height of 40 cm (15.7 in) and is a working, scaled-up copy of a Remington 1859. It was built by Ryszard Tobys of Czempin, Poland and test-fired on July 15, 2002. The gun holds 6 bullets, each weighing 136 g (4.7 oz), with a caliber of 28 mm (1.1 in).

Between May 31 and June 2, 2002, the titanic revolver was used in a shooting competition between NATO Reserve Forces from Great Britain, Denmark, the Czech Republic, Germany and Poland. After three days of firing the fantastic firearm, the prize went to representatives from the Czech Republic.
