BFR 454 Casull

The BFR is heavily built for regular use of heavy hunting loads.
For a walk-around revolver for snake shot you might like a Ruger Super Blackhawk in 4 5/8 or 5.5".
This would save about a pound on the hip.
Another nice option is the S&W 69. It would handle snake loads and lighter 44 mag/ 44 special loads and weighs about 1.5 pounds less than the BFR.
 
i own 5 Fa’s and 4 bfr’s and 6 srh’s. All have been great revolvers. All very accurate. All my fa’s are bug hole accurate. Furthest shots for me were 154 with the bfr 460. 168 with fa454 on a fallow deer. My son shot a blesbok offhand at 234 with a sw 460. The rugers needed trigger jobs 2 fa’s needed trigger jobs and 2?bfrs did. All tougher than they need to be

No such thing as being to tough.

Too Big
Too Bulky
Too Heavy
Too Light
Too Small
Too Hard of trigger pull
Too Many anything else

But never Too Tough.

Made it to Augusta Georgia yesterday for a meeting, hunt bookings are looking good for 2026 and 2027, had a great time on our Alabama safari shot a rutting deer at 200 yards with 7mm PRC near Huntsville and then headed on to Butler Alabama and semi guided my first deer ever shot a very nice broken off 8 point with hunter there and spend a few days on 1100 acres hunting preserve awesome place!

I am righthanded, so not interested in the rifle, but I have a 375 RUM and 350 gr bullet loading data is very hard to come by. If you could reply with information regarding your loads I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you, Ray Boone, Leavenworth, WA

Hello - I was looking at your post from several years ago regarding the Winchester 300 H&H. Any chance you still have the lefty M70 300 H&H for sale?
Thank you, Mike
