    Who makes/sells 50 BMG jackets?

    I know a few of you have contacted me in the past with mention of having 50 BMG jackets for sale.

    I am in need of your information to supply to my customers looking for jackets to make these awesome bullets with. Please post here if possible or send me a PM with all the details.

    Details about your jackets like

    Length-
    Weight-
    Wall Thickness-
    Exact Material, ie. copper or guilding metal etc.-
    Cost-
    Bulk Rate-

    And anything else you care to share.

    I have had great success with RCE jackets but as far as I know they are all gone. I know Corbin offers some. Anyone else?

    I expect to start taking orders for 50 BMG dies in the next couple weeks and have first sets available by end of summer or sooner. Exact details and pics will follow soon.

    Thanks

    Brian

    p.s. or for those of you that might know where to find some quality 50 BMG jackets please let me/us know, thanks.

    Potential customer of mine actually contacted Hornady and reported that they would entertain the idea of selling some of their BMG jackets but minimum order was 100,000 pieces IIRC. Don't know how many of you out there are in need of some 50 BMG jackets but could be a potential group buy?

    I have been using RCE's 1.77 jackets and am sorry they are gone. I would be in for a thousand of the Hornadys. That doesn't sound like much but a thousand BMG rounds is o lot to shoot. I also need them so I can shorten them a bit for the 50 Alaskan.
