Anyone rebarrel an AR50 to 375x50bmg?
Now you're talking new boltface/etc. All I would need is a new 416x50bmg barrel for my AR50 and get bushing 50bmg dies and I'd be good to go, right.? Does no one shoot a 416x50bmg? I would think going from a 750amax at 2800 to a 41cal 500amax would be in the low 3000s - a good place to be IMO...- slm9s

I've got plenty of AA8700 and WC872 for the 50bmg. Fifty brass isn't expensive (comparatively), I was just thinking a necked down 50bmg case would be fun in another barrel for my AR50. What do you think the .416 500gr Amax would do, 3300fps?- slm9s

Hmm... I wonder what velocity a 416x50bmg would give the 500gr Amax???- slm9s

Just a wild thought. With the 390 Atip and 410 Berger out, does anyone shoot a 375x50bmg - especially an AR50? Too overbore?- slm9s

Getting started on a budget...
if you have a wife and kids, you want to be efficient with your time. Buy two presses and have your Sizer in one and your seater die in the other. Grab a piece of brass and size it while your powder thrower is throwing the powder charge. Once it's sized and primed, your powder charge is ready...- slm9s

Max range with 56mm scope on 20 moa rail + ?moa mount?
You can use Burris XTR Signature rings with the +/- inserts and get more cant than your rail's 20moa, and they won't scratch your scope.- slm9s

What XBolt and What round
Best of both worlds - 7mm Rem Mag. Great ballistics and great availability and less recoil than the big 30s.- slm9s

Older Leupold Vari-X III scopes
You'll be surprised what they'll bring on ebay. Do a long auction starting at a penny with no reserve. The optics are ok, but the tracking will be the issue.- slm9s

What’s the art behind hunting rifle accuracy
My two cents, it takes a while to get used to magnum recoil over and over, its mentally taxing. The other thing is fundamentals. (especially important IME is pulling the rifle back into my shoulder with my L hand)- slm9s
