.50 bmg?

[Shoots100]

A local ffl in my area said he converted a Bfg-50a to ny standard.

I'm glad I'm not the only 50bmg nut in NY !

I can’t afford one lol. I do plan on getting one someday.

Where in NY/PA/VT to shoot this long range?

Now to find some Raufoss Mk211 ammo...

I need to pick up some ammo, and I need to start reloading too.

That's the thing with 50Bmg's, where to shoot it ?
Most ranges don't allow the 50Bmg, so you'll need to find a range that does, a piece of land to shoot it, or Join the FCSA and shoot at a 1,000 yard match in PA.
Reloading would be the cheapest bet, if your shooting in competition or have a belt fed.
FMJ ammo is relatively cheap now a days, so most new shooters just buy their ammo and save the brass to load later, if they catch the 50 bug.

Best source of commercial ammo?

There's an internet vendor that specializes in .50 ammo: 50 BMG Ammo Supply - 50 cal Ammunition for the rifle and machinegun" I have bought some from Targetsports too, but I find that many of the vendors are out of stock of the cheaper ammo. 50bmgsupply seems to have a good variety of different type of ammo.

Target sports is the usual place to buy, as they have no issues shipping to NY.
Friends have found some at gun shows too, but you need to check the dates on them, as some might have corrosive primers.

So, by appearances only the McCutchen looks well made for the price. Magazines only $170 each. Put a 4-16x42 on it. Weight loaded, with scope and bipod is 25lbs. Looking forward to shooting. Miniature artillery!

Thanks.

Buds ships, too. They have PMC and AMAX as of right now.

Any experience with survivalops ammo? Good prices it would seem.
