The Mrs bought me a 4 inch 500 S&W mag for our 35th wedding anniversary, it's 4 inches including the muzzle compensator, the barrel itself is only 3 inches.
The first time she watched me shoot it was with some fairly hot 350 grain Lil' Gun loads. As soon as I shot, she started hollering for me to stop. She told me "something wrong...there's a fire coming out all over".

Try to get a pic of that fire breathing dragon next time you shoot or a video clip. You would need tin foil to cover your target to keep from burning it. If Ruger does get off there ass and build a 3 inch Alaskan, might consider the 480. From what I hear, shoots pretty good in current one. Post a pic of that beast if you can. BTW, how far from max load did you load your reload? I just worked up some loads this morning for my 44 and there is allot of powder, to the point of being compressed. Stayed 2 grains from max and worked backwards. Will find out next week when I go to the range to test them out.
