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.
