Better. Von Manstein was a genius and in my view, the best of the best. Allied general, arguably so, he just got a lot of the publicity.

Maybe so, and I admit to being a nut case but nobody has ever made a revolver shoot like I have.
None here has killed so many deer either with them.
NO, I do not hunt pigs but why would there be a difference?
Too many internet warriors without experience. Buy the next gun rag to reinforce yourself.
I defer to Whitworth, he Knows more then all of you EXPERTS put together.
If you think you hurt my feelings. It only shows how stupid you are.
Many told Einstein he was wrong.
Tesla was right about AC, Edison was wrong. What do we have in common? NOTHING at all but I did the work while some of you live a dream word

This friends is a glimpse into the mind of a truly dysfunctional brain. From the interwebs: "Grandiose delusions (GD) or delusions of grandeur are principally a subtype of delusional disorder that occurs in patients suffering from a wide range of mental illnesses, including two-thirds of patients in manic state of bipolar disorder, half of those with schizophrenia and a substantial portion of those with substance abuse disorders.[1][2] GDs are characterized by fantastical beliefs that one is famous, omnipotent, wealthy, or otherwise very powerful. The delusions are generally fantastic and typically have a supernatural, science-fictional, or religious theme." Indicators of severe mental health issues based upon BFRs posts: 1. Nobody on the planet of 7.3 Billion people can shoot a revolver like BFR. 2. Nobody has killed as many animals as BFR. 3. Extreme condescension in posts, due to believing he is superior, as stated in his posts. 4. Comparing himself to Einstein. 5. Comparing himself to Tesla. Extreme narcissism as shown here: "What do we have in common? NOTHING at all". General non linear ramblings, as shown in almost all of BFR's blathering. I can almost guarantee if a designated examiner were to interview BFR, he would be immediately put on a mental hold. Just a guess, but based upon his ramblings, I would lay money on Schizo-Affective disorder. Cheers! Frankly shocked Kepler wasn't quoted in BFR's all-star lineup.

Pretty sad when a man like Jorge asks a simple question and then it degenerates to bfrshooter's mad rantings. I put him on ignore a while back because of his crap. My advice would be for everyone to do the same.

Well boys (and brf), the GOOD news is I ordered the 454. The BAD news is I don't know when I'll get it.

Frankly shocked Kepler wasn't quoted in BFR's all-star lineup. Old Johannes knew his way around a solar system, but the guy couldn't find a bullet in a bowl of sauerkraut. All theory. It wasn't til BFR managed to shoot a 45 WFN around the sun, and had it return 2 hours earlier, that both Kepler and Einstein were vindicated.

The .480 models are on gunbroker now so should be hitting the bigger gunstores pretty quickly.

I have that same revolver only mine has 5 1/2" barrel. My go to load is the 45-270-SAA semi-wad cutter over 13.5 grains of HS6 for about 1100 fps. It should do most things you would need a sixgun to do.

I agree 100% with JWP. Congrat's on the new shooter Jorge. The nice thing about that choice is even if you never load it above hot 45Colt levels, you have the comfort of knowing the gun can take it. It should last forever shooting the warm Colt or reduced 454 loads!

Holee she-ite... Someone really wants to be the first kid on his block to own one. Bid is at $1,125.00 with over a day to go. I'm guessing the seller is smiling at this one. http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=503562044

More money than brains...
Jorge, keep us posted with your 454. I have several FA-83's in 454 and I can say that factory (FA) 260-grain ammo is ignorant in the recoil department. You can actually feel the back side of the muzzle blast slap you in the face! However, 300-grain or bigger LFN's or WFN's at 1100 to 1200 make the 454 a real joy to shoot.

I think, he thinks they will be in short supply on the first production run.
My guess is that that pistol will sell for 1300.00
I heard the 454 is sold out already.
