Well my 500 S&W should arrive tomorrow or Friday so I will be ordering reloading supplies for it soon. I wanted to ask what those of you that own and reload this caliber what your favorite bullets and loads are. I mostly will shoot it just for fun so milder to medium loads are all I am looking for. Also where do you buy your bullets. I appreciate any input. Thanks, Charlie

In my 500 S&W I shoot the most loads with 10 grains of unique under 440 grain lead GC bullet. That load is just plain fun.  My medium load uses 15 grains of Titegroup under the same bullet and my "elephants in the yard" load load uses 40 grains of H110.  The bullet I use in all my loads is a very hard cast gas checked bullet with a 90% meplat from Ranger Rick in Alaska.  http://www.lsstuff.com/ranger-rick/

I load 35 grains of Vihta Vouri N110, behind a Sierra 400 gr. bullet.  It is a mild to med load.
