It may just be a blip.
I had a 50 beo and a 458S
1st I could not find any 50 beo brass.
Then I could not find any 458S brass.
Then marty hooked me up with some of his personal stock.
At that point I had hoped sombody would cook up a ar15 to shoot the 500 S+W magnum round.
Guess it wont happen though. Seems like if they could get a 410 shotgun shell to feed, somebody could figure out how to get a 500 S+W magnum to feed.
You have both the 458 and 50? Which do you like better? I have been thinking about the 458 or 450 lately.
Had both. I did like the 50 beo, but the bullet BC is lacking. Huge hole though.
I sort of like the even 1/2 inch thing.
I got a 458S next.Better bullets, better BC etc. Hawk spire points are very nice.
They are really both about the same as far as the end effect with the 458S winning out IMO
mostly due to bullet BC and SD. My 458 socom fed a little better too, and it has a shoulder to headspace off of.
If I do buy another heavy hitter AR15 upper it will probably be a 450B, just so I can maybe find ammo a little easier.
I used 50B and 458S mostly for CQ hog hunting so a 450B would work fine for that too.
I really wanted to do a 375, 416 or a 458 WSSM wildcat to get 2000 fpe at 200 yards, but I chenged my mind.
The platform is just too limited in mag length.
Ended up setting up a control feed savage 375 ruger that has tons of FPE and much better bullet selection thatn either.
Its a serious dangerous game round and the recoil is not bad at all. I do think I might up the anti though and swap to a 416 ruger.
