Somewhat unrelated to topic.
I have loaded 50BMG ammo to levels not recommended.
Most of this ammo was in new LC brass with 808 brass solids clocking 2964 fps from my modified AR-50.
I used this brass/bullet combo to win the 2-gun 2021 FCSA Match at Blakely Georgia.
Almost all rounds required pulling brass case out of ejection port - then reaching forward again to pick the primer out of the action. The bolthead received some slight pitting from cutting action - it was replaced (Thank you Martin L.)
The load was developed in 60 degree weather and shot in 90 degree weather. Not good practice.
I feel the LC brass was soft as I have duplicated this load with a heavy loading resulting in same FPS using RAUG PECA brass from Switzerland with no primer pocket growth or ejector marks. Results are very similar to results from using RWS brass and primers.
(I have another loading that results in 3185 fps with 800 grain brass solids while using WS2 bullet coating technology and extreme case modification. Accuracy is not up to level that the 808 loading represents.)
I highly recommend you reclaim your rounds by pulling the projectile, dumping the powder - reweighing powder at a lower level (10 grains less) so all are same - dump powder back in - reseat projectile (crimp if auto loading). This will increase the accuracy potential of your rifle using surplus ammo.
YMMV.
