BTW...
The HTI in 50BMG .......setup right is one of the most accurate firearms i have used .... and i have used and owned a lot of exotic firearms!!

Bipods...
I have owned just about every option........ALL suffer form excessive "Slop" IMO !!
I used an F.Class derivative Bipod at one point and the difference was huge ...so i designed and built the example in the pics...it doesn't look "tactical" ....but it is 100& stable....the Atlas Super Cal i had feels like a spindly . wobbly piece of crap in comparison..

I noticed some pics you posted earlier where you didn't use a blast shield. Is the blast that bad even with the T6 on it?

Without blast shields the T6 does a very good job of mitigating recoil ...the back blast is not terrible, but it is still quite substantial.
I suffer from severe Tinnitus ....so anything i can do to offset its effects prolongs my time shooting..

Some time ago i did a session with the 50 in "Naked " form ....i fired circa 80 rounds that day...well the next couple of days i suffered from severe vertigo and nausea..... the concussive effect on me was substantial !!
With the blast shields i can do extended sessions with the 50 without ANY effects whatsoever ....it might look extreme but it makes it such a pleasure to use..
Just a few weeks back i had a young 12yr old girl fire 20 odd rounds of the 50 at extended range....no drams at all. The young lass will progress into quite a shooter judging from her efforts !!

You guys arguing over AI pictures have obviously never reviewed actual historic photos like these.

After AIT, several of us went to Steak & Ale in Augusta to celebrate. 1 guy brought a local girl he'd been dating with him. She ordered a prime rib, and ketchup.

I never thought a less than 1/2” moa SAC Built rifle would not have sold by now, especially with all the stuff that is being given away with it!

29 grains of Staball match with an 85.5 hybrid gets me 2,940 in a 25” barrel-bolt gun and had been very accurate but dirty.

Anyone played with 8208 with 80+ grain options?

Better get them bought quick then. lol $200 doesn’t seem to bad now does it?

RL26 is not very temp stable either. Any of the double base "super" powders that give way more velocity give up temp stability as a tradeoff. They also tend to torch barrels much faster.

All N5xx, RL26 ect.

H1000 or even H4350 if you aren't chasing speed.

back in the day, they used to take the families of terribly delinquent young people outside the city walls and stone them.
delinquency wasn't a big problem back then.

This only works if a society’s morality is proper. Unfortunately it cuts both ways. If the morality is wrong you wind up with proper people getting persecuted and society suffers. So it raises an important question: is that society moral or is it degenerate? I’m not questioning whether the parent’s culpability, that’s legitimate. But what I’m asking is whether the magistrates are moral in their judgements.
