The new brass hand cycles great in mine, range day is Sunday.
Yea, has an unusual recoil. The "meat tenderizer" butt of my lower was not fun. I just got a John Masen rubber piece for the butt, seems like it should help a lot.

Got the new mould figured out, been working on some boolets for the 500 for my son.
Seeing as how I kind of talked you out of a 45 for a 50, how about I send you some PC coated (I use Smoke's clear) of the new MiHa 385g ? HP, solid, mix, your choice.

Honestly I am like most men. I was most likely going to always go as big as I could. I thank you for the offer. Ill send you a pm we can work out something. Thanks

In see the Ruger 450B in my future. Still not a big fan of the AR stuff. One will do. We will have that talk when it happens. LOL

Ya that meat grinder on the end has to go. I have red-purple dots on my right side from that thing. I do not like the cheap plastic ones anyway. I am more of a fixed guy.

Had a chance to shoot a 450 BM in the Ruger bolt action. Nice gun. I think I will put it on the wish list once things settle down in my life. I feel it has almost no kick compared to the 50 BW. Next week I will try a 458 socom. I will do a pros and conns of all three from my point of view afterwards. This will be from a shooters point of view not a reloaders.

I just learned my Beowulf might have to go bye bye. The laws are Grey and very hard to understand here in NYS. SO from what I am being told I can not have a muzzle brake on my upper. My lower that is not in my house at this time can not have the AR MAG LOCK on it and be legal. My lower can not take a removable mag. My lower can not have a pistol grip. The list of laws goes on and on. I was told by the State police hotline that they do not stand by if I ran a fixed mag with the mag lock it was OK to have evil features. Like a muzzle brake. Oh boy. I will have to read up more on the laws and figure this out as I am not going to have a illegal in my house.


Maybe I will get lucky and Mr Alexandra will see my post and sell me a 50 Beowulf Bolt action at and affordable price. I can not swing the price he stated at shot show.
