I saw A BFR Maxine in .500S&W A couple weeks ago in person. It's identicle to the .45-70 BFR Maxine aside from the boar diamiter etc.
I am told that the .500 Magnum BFR and .45-70 BFR are almost the exact same in how they shoot.
I have fired the .45-70BFR Maxine. It's like A .50AE Desert Eagle but softer and more stable kick.
I belong to another forum who has someone their who fired the S&W. He says pretty much the same thing about the S&W compared to the .50AE Desert Eagle. Softer and more stable.
I have seen the bullets before to. Big but not what I expected. I was expecting something more like the .50 Alaska.
.500S&W isn't that expensive to shoot as long as you have the brass. .50AE bullets will fit so you can probibly reload them for as little as 35 cents A round.
