Yes handheld shots have always worked best for me. I tried the 70-300mm IS + Kenko Tc on a tripod and the results from the handheld shots at 1/320s were actually better! Since then I always shoot handheld. here's a shot handheld from the 70-300 IS + 1.4 Kenko Tc at 1/320s F9 http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2114/2332890500_f0bdc6fcba_o_d.jpg
I'm pretty sure handheld shots w the 500mm F4 IS + Tc would be great also if you keep the shutter speed around 1/500s or up (f5.6 and ISO 200/400)...that is if you can handheld that beast for long enough
Of course without IS all this would be impossible (Sigmonster or 400m prime)

I've done a few moon pictures and for what you did, that's a great shot. Shooting straight up may be more stable than you think..
