Gentlemen, you thoughts and experiences,with the BFR,accuracy, durability, and recoil, I am referring to a 10" 45/70.

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.
