Big Horn Armory Rifles With Collector Grade Walnut Stocks
Big Horn Armory (BHA) rifles should go on the wish list of every big-bore handgunner. The company specializes in lever-action rifles chambered for such powerful handgun cartridges as .460 S&W, .500 S&W, .454. Casull, .475 Linebaugh, .500 Linebaugh and .45 Colt. Having a top-quality Big Horn Armory rifle that takes the same ammo as your hunting handgun is a convenient way to increase your capabilities.
Big Horn Armory Collector-Grade Stocks
Now, Big Horn Armory is offering a limited number of their rifles with collector-grade walnut stocks. The Collector-Grade Walnut is a higher grade up from BHA’s Fancy Walnut, but just underneath its Exhibition-Grade Walnut, which sold out in early 2020. This is an ideal upgrade for the lever-action rifle collector looking to add something special to his collection.
This higher-grade American Black Walnut exhibits more streaking, fancy figure and fiddleback on both sides of the stock than standard or fancy walnut versions.
The Collector-Grade Walnut is a $1,100 option that will be available for every BHA lever-action rifle model.

More About Big Horn Armory
Big Horn Armory was founded in 2008 with the expressed intention of designing a Browning-type lever-action gun chambered in 500 Smith & Wesson Magnum. The Big Horn Armory Model 89, made in America, closely follows the work of John Browning with refinements courtesy of modern metallurgy and machining capabilities.
The first rifles began shipping in September of 2012 and since then BHA has added to their big bore lineup with a Model 90 Carbine in 460 S&W, the Model 90A in 454 Casull, the Model 90B in .45 Colt, the Model 89A in 500 Linebaugh and the Model 89B in .475 Linebaugh. In 2017, Big Horn Armory took a departure from its lever-action series and developed the AR500 Auto Max, the most powerful short-range, semi-auto based on an AR .308 platform. The rifles chambers the 500 Auto Max, a rimless version of the .500 S&W Magnum.
