Gentlemen, you thoughts and experiences,with the BFR,accuracy, durability, and recoil, I am referring to a 10" 45/70.
rack...,
Have the following BFRs: (2)22 Hornet, 460 S&W, had a 475 Linebaugh, (2)50 AE/500 JRH, 500 S&W, 30-30 WCF, 444 Marlin. All very accurate, no issues with durability, recoil relative to the cartridge and load.

The IMI website has a slow-mo video showing the BFR 45-70 in recoil.

They are typically outstanding, particularly at the their price point.
James,
The Hornets are great, just get a lot of case lengthening on firing / resizing ( common complaint ). Plan on rechambering one to K-Hornet.

I have been very pleased with my 6.5" 480/475 BFR. Have never shot one in 45-70 and never really wanted to.

Thanks guy"s, I have reconsidered the caliber and, I"m going to go with the 454 casull, with a little guidance, what make? the BFR or the Freedom arms.
