That said, ive seen this with many smiths as well as my own. The bfr is by far a faster better built gun. It out distances my 454?s with any weight bullet handily. 265?s are well over 250 fps faster and 300?s are 240-500 fps faster depending on loading technique. None of which is insignificant. When you add to the fact the 7.5? bfr balances as well offhand as a 10? fa83 you have something for sure. The real issue is the frrebore and the rifling. Smith does a few things that cause a velocity loss.
