| Anyone have a good or favorite loading manual/CD for the .50? I haven't purchased a manual in years (pre software availability, now that's dating myself). I've got one or more from virtually every major component/powder manufacturer but the reality is that many of todays loads weren't in print when these manuals were. Thanks for any recommendations. |
| That's just it, nothing specifically. Simply a variety of loads. I guess right now I wouldn't mind seeing what people are doing with the 690 grain South African stuff as a plinking round. I would also like see different loads using 5010 as there is quite a bit of this surplus powder for a little bit of nothing relatively speaking. I would like to see load data on both Barnes and Hornaday's bullets. I just like reference material at hand. |
Ok, well I really don't want to tell you this, but you should probably join FCSA. I am sure that they have a ton of load info that will be very valuable to you. (Bring some back if you get the chance  ) Just kidding.....ok I am not.I am not a member and probably never will be. I have been able to find 95% of what I need by searching the net, but I bet that the money that you would be willing to spend on a manual or a DVD would be better off going towards the FCSA membership. If I were in need of such info, I would join up myself. $40 isn't really anything these days.....am I talking myself into joining??......  I personally don't know of any book or DVD that is specifically geared to the BMG, other than Build Your Own type things. Good luck to you. |
| Already an FSCA member. I bought a years membership and Armalite paid for a years membership with the purchase of an AR50. This seems to be a fairly well kept secret but they include it in their package though I had to call them on it. There are several other manufacturers that also give you a years membership over there for purchasing their product. They have a great deal of good info. I just like to have it at my finger tips instead of always doing a Goggle search. |
