This is a sample of what you can expect with a lapua or a Amax bullet with 215 gr of H50BMG.

I tried alot of chrono testing and target testing with 5010. The group shot between these two targets with an AMAX with 215 gr of 5010 was a 5", five shot group. Same powder weight charge as the .50BMG powder.

If you want to bust rocks or just shoot to horse around with, then use 5010. If you want to develope a load for accuracy, then go to a prem. powder, slow burning.

C.O.L. 5.450

close to .750 freebore or bullet jump as well.

Were you using an AR-50?

Yes,

The rifle is a AR50 Armalite that will drive tacks.

Skeeters!

Ya better sell it to me real cheap! cuz AR50's cannot shoot accurate, so they tell me. LOL

It is a stock rifle right out of the box. Those groups were shot before I redid the trigger.

The trigger has a 1lb pull now. At waco tx, I was doing good till the scope broke internally. It was a nightforce. They repaired it and sent it back FAST!

I tuned the rifle up with some adjustments. Simple ones that work. It ain't a fancy rifle, but it will drive tacks!

This is a spotter disk from a match at quantico, Those are the first 3 shots at 1,000 yards.
