From Mazeworld
The .500 S&W (also known as .500 S&W Magnum) is a very large revolver caliber developed by Smith & Wesson and Cor-Bon. It is considered a top-tier caliber and is the best handgun cartridge of the game.
Real-life data
Smith & Wesson, which developed the legendary .357 Magnum and .44 Magnum calibers, had always been in the spotlight in firearms and ammunition development. But since the .454 Casull's introduction, a magnum variant of the .45 Colt, .44 Magnum had been eclipsed as the most powerful revolver cartridge in the world…
…That is, until 2003. Smith & Wesson presented at the SHOT trade show their latest invention in revolver cartridges: the .500 S&W Magnum (or just .500 S&W), intended as a handgun, hunting cartridge capable of taking down all North American kinds of game, but especially developed for one purpose: being the most powerful revolver cartridge in the world.
Since the undeniable success of the .44 Magnum and Smith & Wesson's famous Model 29 revolver, due in no small part to the success of famous movie Dirty Harry, S&W had sought to reclaim the title of being the firearms manufacturer that produced the most powerful revolver in the world - and they succeeded. Designed from the outset to fulfill this objective, the caliber develops, depending on bullet type, between 3400 and an astounding 4100 Joule of muzzle energy; such power was never seen before in revolver cartridges.
