McCutchen Firearms' MF-50MC

[bunker buster]

Hello everybody,

Greetings! New to this forum.

I was wondering if anybody here have an actual experience with McCutchen Firearms' MF-50MC 50 BMG rifle in terms of accuracy and reliability. There's not much video on this rifle but the price is very tempting. (I know I know you get what you pay for) but who knows .

I don't want to spend a fortune shooting the 50 BMG but I would like to do some ELR shooting which intyerest me. If this rifle can do a decent job I'm up for it. Appreciate feedback from you guys.

I’ve never seen an AR upper style 50 that wasn’t a piece of shit. That one looks like a piece of shit too.

For the price of that turd you could get yourself a nice custom action and build a 30 cal magnum or 338 and have a far better ELR rifle.

The recoil is something to behold...

shooting a 50BMG from a 12 pound AR is so high on the list of things i never intend to do

also...milspec chamber sounds great for ELR shooting

for that cost you could build a CDG from ARC in 300/338NM / 338LMI / 33/37XC and not blow your face off

Thanks for the kind comment.

What do you guys think of the desert tech HTI 50 BMG?

I have been wanting a DT HTI. Nice thing is you can swap out the barrel and bolt for other long range calibers.

If you just need a 50 to have a 50 get a desert tech or McMillan.

If you just want to shoot elr get a 338 Lapua and you can slightly enjoy it, while being able to find match ammo or reload cheaper.

He has a point! Everything costs a lot for the fifty and honestly there are better calibers for long range precision shooting.

I still have a nice collection of Lapua 750grn Hybrids that are spendy if you can find them. I think the last time I saw them for sale they cost about $11 a projectile. I put roughly 235 grns of Vhit 20N29 behind them, a pound of powder doesn't go far with that and even less so with my 647grn Barnes X that I load with around 245grns (these are just estimates and I haven't loaded for my .50 bmg in a while so do not use this as load data especially since I do not have the actual load data in front of me). Next, the primers are not as available and of course cost more because its for a fifty.

Also, a solid optic and rings is a must. The recoil impulse on these things wrecks cheaper optics.

The other issue is that people are retards and think the .50 BMG is magical and can rip the legs and arms off of people if they are within 1 mile of the projectile when it goes downrange. As a result of people being morons (to include shooter) a lot of ranges do NOT allow people to shoot .50 BMG on them and some of the ones that do allow it aren't really very capable ranges with good distances or that is at least the case where I am at.

There is some cool ammo out there, but most ranges won't let you use it there. SLAP, SLAP-T, AP, API, Raufus aka MK211 Det, Tracer, Dim Tracer, Incendiary, Spotter Tracer, ball (has a steel core) among a few of the mil stuff. For the none mil stuff there are a lot of manufacturers but the most common is Hornady AMAX. There is a Fifty Caliber Shooters Association and they have shoots. We used to have a very active fifty caliber shooters group but that seemed to die off when a bunch of shity personalities wrecked the party at Biggerhammer (sadly).

They are fun to shoot in small doses.

Anyways, if you want a fifty get a fifty, they are fun.
