That is some nice shooting!! thanks for shareing.

All I know is that it must be the uglyness of the BFR and those grips that scare the WFN's straight LOL
....

Because a 475 Freedom Arms will throw flyers that will go 30-100ft+ in any direction after the bullet passes about the 200yard mark. I really got to see this with mine and a BUNCH of wasted powder and lead. Guys several stations down from me really got to see it too when the 420WFN GC came crashing into there lane....could not believe how crazy these thing go once they destablize.

Linebaugh told me he saw a video where the light is just right and you can acctually see the bullets....the WFN's start to buffet and then they do a course change and slice off.


Mister, why do you carry a 45? "Because Sam Colt don't make a 46."

Freedom revolvers sit under the glass for months at a fraction of what people pay for them. They scare customers away straighter and farther than a boat tail.

All crappy loads worked up at gun writer's 25 yard ranges fall apart at 100 yards. Don't believe it? Try it. I have. Perhaps it was the loading technique that the experts failed to grasp.

One thing I forgot to add: the barrel twist. It must be fast enough for WFN's. For the Freedom, just go with a lighter WFN and move it faster.

With the right combination you can. Here's a group right after I got the gun in '09 with LBT 420 WFN's from Montana Bullet Works.
