Question on .500 NE bullets and brass.

For those of you who have actual experience with bullets in the .500 NE, what have you found as far as bullet integrity & performance on Buff or like game?
I am interested in make and weight.

Where are you finding brass for the .500 NE 3"?

Many thanks,

Sam

500grains

All I have shot so far with the 500 NE is a bison. I used a Bridger flat nosed solid. Although it was a solid, it caused substantial tearing of the lungs due to the flat nosed design.

Brass from Huntingtons. Avoid Bertram.
