If you're gonna get a rifle like that, shoot it like you stole it, i say. Don't choke the poor thing back!

Go hard or go home is my motto :)
The reactions of those that experienced the brutality of the DTA 50 at Plink Fest 2017 were priceless, not 1 single look of disappointment.

Crazy thread, if you even consider cast bullets for 50BMG you cant afford the hardware or reloading components.

None of it is cheap!

Cast bullets are not just about costs, they're also a great way to get more enjoyment and variety out of your shooting. As Noisydad said, every bullet he fired last year he cast himself.

I'm running a reduced load for my target rounds, only 217.5gr per shell :)

But noisy is shooting black powder. That's what they were designed to shoot. 50BMG was designed to shoot copper jacketed bullets.

If you want to shoot light loads use a 308 or whatever.
