BFR revolvers

[soldier506]

Hi, just wondering if anyone here has a BFR revolver? What calibre? They include calibre's such as 45-70 and .500 s&w . Now that is a revolver with some punch. Wonder what the recoil would be like?

Here is a video .

Shot a friends 45-70 . His free ammo. Great fun. Regularly shoot my Smith & Wesson 629 3 inch with factory ammo. Guess what? If I can't handle it with a 44 mag it's time for a 308. John

It would be interesting tricking a CS gamer who's never even seen 'l337 ph4t real steel' before into touching it off limp-wristed.

What type of loads would the revolver take? Could they handle heavier loads like a marlin 45-70 can? Or are they stuck to factory .

Would make a nice backup hunting revolver if ever allowed in Canada .

What is the price range in Canada?

The .500 S&W, 8 3/8" with full house loads using 440gr cast bullets or the 500gr Hornady JFP Mags for example, has the ability to inflict pain, at both ends.

I believe they are about $1200, from the Shooting Edge in Calgary.
