It’s the perfect combination of packable power and IMHO the perfect barrel length for a single action. I still haven’t shot mine yet. I went and ordered 500 cases from Starline and have been cutting down the brass with the chop saw using one of the jigs off fleabay

Ole Mattie Ross would be proud, brother. 😆 👍

I'm looking forward to the hand loads you make for that beautiful powerhouse revolver. Congratulations on your purchase.

You will appreciate that grip frame, the Ruger Bisley grip eats my knuckle up even in 44 Special when loaded with the Keith load. I have yet to abuse mine with the BFR version even with full tilt 500L. I would however recommend either a good pair of deerskin gloves and size down from what you normally wear or perhaps another set of grip panels as those can get a bit slick in the Alabama heat. The only knock I give them, and it is small , is that I like the wide Ruger SBH hammer. I will admit not enough to go to the trouble of swapping it out though and I also just wear my gloves until I finally break down and get new grip panels. Congratulations on a mighty fine revolver.

This 5.5" doesn't fit in my Triple K leather thumb break holster for my 5.5" Blackhawk ( it's close though ..barrel length seems a tad longer on the BFR) , but I would wager that it would fit in the same holster for a 6.5" Blackhawk. I will order one one day and see

@@StevenMMan I've seen that Diamond D offers a properly sized leather chest rig specifically for the BFR 5.5" short frame big bored.

Welcome to the big bore family and sore knuckles

Always though the X-frame long cartridges S&W made were only bragging rights, to reclaim a movie line "most powerful handgun in the world." They are impractical, heavy, limited capacity. The .500 JRH shortens that back to a practical length. Personally I think the .454 Casull is peak practical, but it's often punishing in recoil due to pressure. The .480 Ruger and .500 JRH are also practical, but in a bigger bore sense.

@tannstang Thanks for the reply. I assume bisley grip. I remember Ross Seyfrieds articles on those years ago. How's the recoil compared to the .454? I have a .454, a .475 bfr, a .460 bfr and an x frame .500. I see Gary Reeder makes a .500 magnum on his own frame that is like a beefed up Ruger. That one makes me jealous. Sad that Mr. Linebaugh passed away. No chance you're from Missouri? I practically dream about running so.eone near me that's into this stuff. Lots of gun people around me but mostly ARs and standard carry stuff. Thank you for taking the time to reply. Oh yeah, I've heard Linebaughs build quality is impeccable. That true?

Awesome revolver, I got one in 357mag with the long barrel. Its a tack driver and so over built I doubt it will ever wear out even eating nothing but full house loads lol.

I just find the ever increasing bore funny for some reason. Or Taurus to come out with a 3" magnum 12 gauge revolver. "The new Taurus Judge Dredd!!!" LOL
