It's been a few years ago now since I purchased my only Freedom Arms, a Model 83 in 454 Casull with a 6" barrel. I used to run it pretty hard, but now-a-days I run mostly everything under 1300 fps. They are scary accurate, and I personally find the Freedom Arms grip frame the absolute best for recoil, the Bisley is next. Hope you enjoy many years of shooting yours!

When the bugs land and start eating people you're ready now.

Congrads, everyone should own a FA, amazing revolvers but beware of the barrel/cylinder gap, that puppy is cutting torch in disguise

Sadly I only have one in my collection at the moment, at one time I had four.

Those don't look too bad. And it appears you are having fun with it! That's a good thing. Congratulations on a great find.

I loaded up 60 rounds, mostly of lifter 900-1000 fps loads with cast 325’s. The video is of a minimum load of H110, but still close to 1400 fps. Fun stuff!

I’ve wanted a FA for years and shooting several of them from you fellas here hasn’t helped. I wasn’t currently lo9king, but this one came up on a local board and after some thinking and talking with the owner (and prodding by some here) I drove up and picked up a 7.5” premier model 83 in .50 ae with a lot of extras last weekend. I loaded up some ammo over the week and was able to go shoot it yesterday. It was a lot of fun and while I didn’t shoot it up to it’s potential, I’m looking forward to getting better with it!
