50 BMG load?

[quilbilly]

I have a friend who is about to order a mold for his 50 BMG. He asked me to inquire from the assembled experts on this site what some powders and loads might be for a "plinking load" with a 600 gr boolit. OK guys - don't let me down

There is an actually thread some where in here where a guy is doing that. Its been a while since i have seen it. I will see if i can find it.

TB worked well with an 850gr for me. 1600fps and 1.5" @100yds.

Look in the "10 grains of Unique" thread.

That looks like about an 80-85% load density given that most 90-95% TB loads are 60% of factory loads with the same size projectile.

Think more along the lines of closer to 90%. IIRC--100% is around 83gr of TB and my load is under 75 gr. Groups were starting to open up at 75gr
