    Default I've got me a bitch with expensive tastes...

    I was hoping I could get away with the "cheap" PMC 50 BMG rounds...
    Nope, it's not good enough for her...
    I got a nice 5 shot, 100 yds zero group with Hornady 750 gr Amax, 3/4", 4 out of 5 in 1/2".
    PMC Bronze printed a group 5 times bigger...
    And before you start saying that a 50 is not even stabilizing at 100 yds, there comes a 400 yds target...15" group...
    Nope, at least in my rifle, PMC is not an option at ANY distance...
    Rant over.
    Anybody needs a kidney?
    I'll give you a great deal...😁

    Sounds like it is time to bite the bullet and start reloading or develop a taste for top ramen

    Sounds like reloading 50 is a whole different ballgame, with expensive tooling and hard to find components ...
    Not sure how much saving I would achieve over factory rounds...

    All components are hard to find right now. If you start now it will just feel normal.

    That ain't no "Run of the mill" rifle, trust me!

    I immediately fell in love with it. Damn you for letting me shoot it.

    One thing I noticed is that's it's far easier to earn the bragging rights of "All my shots were touching each other!" when the bullet's a half inch in diameter!

    YOU are the first responder. Police, fire and medical are SECOND responders.
    When seconds count, the police are mere minutes away...
    Gun registration is gun confiscation in slow motion.
