    That's a fine looking rifle. I'm a lever gun guy, it's really nice to see the renewed interest and development in lever guns in recent years.

    Please people, refrain from being crybabies in the comments section regarding the price of these units. Work in American manufacturing, especially something as precise and complex as a lever action rifle, and you'll start to appreciate both the time investment and the cost of doing it. If you want to pay Brazil or Japan or Italy for a lever action, that's fine, you'll get a quality product. You just won't get the quality and accuracy and custom level of these Big Horns, and no one else on the market is offering something anywhere as durable or which chambers Linebaugh and big bore S&W magnums. Rossi R92 runs 454 Casull but it isn't the same unit as the Big Horn, not by a long shot.
    If you don't like the price, fine, but I doubt Gunblast, Big Horn, or people who appreciate leverguns want to read your bellyaching.

      Well, I know what the different grades cost just wondering where it fits. I have several levers and something custom guns and a mint condition 35 Winchester built into 1909, truth is I hunt with the Henry 30-30 mire than anything. I'm in the timber alot. Now there are several new levers, 360 buckhammer Anda a new strait wall I think in 40 caliber m.y intrest into the 500 or even the 460 is light weight quick handling because there's something I've ran into that needs and heavy weight and I think the 50 holds 9 rounds I have a 45-70, but I do go places most people don't but it's heavy. Too long. I could easily buy it with cash, but wasn't looking at the other models and this ones seems to fit what I need, all these others are beautiful hand crafted works of art,but I'll be dragging it through hell. At 70 years old lighter is better

      @@markdavidson8424 If you're looking to achieve 45-70 levels of power at moderate ranges, or in the brush country, but want higher load capacity and less weight in a lever action, then there's not a lot of options outside a Rossi R92 in 454 Casull (and deal with stout recoil with a lightweight rifle), or get some higher performance loads for the .30-30 (like Buffalo Bore 190gr) but deal with less capacity, or buy the base price Big Horn Armory in 454 Casull or 500 S&W mag, which are shorter rifles but not necessarily light weight. The .40 caliber you might be thinking about is the .400 Legend but it's a semi-auto rimless cartridge for AR-platforms. Straight wall .35 caliber option lately is the .360 Buckhammer, which only exceeds the .35 Remington performance by a very small amount. It's based on the .38-55 case (the parent of .30-30). Alternately, you could go with the venerable .45 Colt in a strong lever action and use Buffalo Bore loads (going by their firearms recommendation list under their ammo, of course). Don't underestimate the power of a good .45 Colt +p load in a carbine.

    Wow, an old Rossi .45-70 cycles considerably better than that, and they cost about $450 brand new not that long ago. Can't believe those are going for $800 now, either. Ridiculous. Gun owners these days are getting gouged. As for the BHA in the review, might try sitting down a couple nights and just cycle the action a couple hundred times. Seriously; shouldn't have to, but here we are... for that kind of money, they should have a rig that does nothing but cycle actions until they're smooth enough for a customer.
