This may be WordPress/PHP behavior. Choices in forms typically need 10-20 PHP ‘input vars’ to store into the database. A default PHP install on a server sets max_input_vars to 1000. Divide that by (say) 20 and you get 50 choices that can be saved.
The method you should use to increase this depends on your hosting. If you have control over php.ini (for example, most VPS or dedicated server owners do), you can set it in there. Else I think it can be set in the .htaccess file in your web server. This issue arises a lot with complex menus as well.
Please note that S&F Pro does not fully support relationship fields in ACF, but the next version does (I have a development version of that, if you need it), which we will release in a few days.
