Frequently Asked Questions
Can the BFR in .45-70 Government handle full-power hunting loads?
Yes. The Magnum Research BFR is engineered as a true magnum platform from the ground up, meaning it is built to safely handle the full spectrum of .45-70 Government loads — from mild cowboy-action loads all the way up to heavy hunting ammunition suitable for large and dangerous game. Always consult your ammunition manufacturer's pressure ratings and follow safe handloading practices if reloading.
Can I mount a scope or red dot on the BFR?
Absolutely. Every BFR comes with an MRI Weaver-style scope mount included in the box, making it straightforward to attach a long-eye-relief handgun scope, red dot, or reflex sight. This makes the BFR an excellent choice for hunters and silhouette shooters who want enhanced accuracy at extended ranges.
How does the BFR compare to other large-caliber single-action revolvers on the market?
The Magnum Research BFR stands apart by offering a fully stainless steel construction, a precision-grade barrel, and factory Hogue grips — features often found only as upgrades on competing revolvers. Its availability in long-cartridge calibers like .45-70 Government, which many competitors do not support, makes it one of the most versatile and powerful production single-action revolvers available today.
