java guava

I'd like to have a list which contains the integers in the range 1 to 500. Is there some way to create this list using Guava (or just plain Java) without having to loop through the range and add the values individually within my own code?

The new, Java 8, way:

List<Integer> range = IntStream.range(0, 500).boxed().collect(Collectors.toList());
