Yeah the BFR... I had one in 45-70 with the 7.5 inch barrel and later cut it down to 5 1/2 for easier draw out of the holster. It was a hand full with the Hornady 325 FTX ammo! The 30-30 should have less kick and the BFR is built really tight. I had to skim a few thousandths off of the recoil shield area for enough head space for the cylinder to rotate with some brands of 45-70 brass.
Think Hickok will have another video up on that 30-30 BFR as that was his Sunday video.
Spring has sprung. Get out and shoot your Henry
