A while back I bought a Magnum Research 10" 45-70 revolver and promptly installed a Match Dot on it. I am still amazed at the acuraccy of this gun in fact so much so I just bought another one so I can enjoy one with iron sights also.

This is definitely the last one.

I promise.

Maybe.

I can't wait to get mine I gotta wait until end of july till I get to see it at the gun shop (gotta be imported and passed through customs etc) and then another month till I can actually take it home and shoot it because of our ridiculous licensing system. I'll just keep drooling over the pictures of everyone elses B.F.Rs.

It will be worth the wait.

Try the BFR .475 and .500 JRH too. Go to the range and make rifle shooters weep and go home! :bigsmyl2:

I can attest to that! I have yet to find a boolit that doesn't shoot good in my BFR .475.

Of course I load 400 grainers at around 1200 FPS - any more than that and my shoulder feels like I went a round or 2 with Mike Tyson beating on it.

1200 I can handle and shoots good enough at 100 to bounce a 6X8 steel plate all day long! Open sights!
