Production models, Smith & Wesson claims their Model 500 to be the most powerful, while the Russian state ministry for weapons exports (Rosonbornexport) claims their RSh-12 to be the most powerful.
Outpowering both of them and firing the .600 Nitro Express cartridge is the Pfeiffer-Zeliska revolver, but this was never intended to be a full production firearm... it was intended to be a one-off model, although Pfeiffer is willing to make others... at the "mere" cost of $17,000.
