I am thinking about a 50 BMG purchase next Spring, but there are so few people that really know anything about them! I will probably only be able to shoot this beast about 2-4 times per year and thus cannot justify a $6000 Barrett, or the elegant $7,000 EDM Windrunner.
Here is my 'shopping list' of requirements:
1) would like to keep cost under $2,500, and certainly under $3k.
2) It must be tolerable to shoot recoil-wise, so and effective muzzle brake is mandatory I suppose.
3) Weight is relatively unimportant.
4) I am left-hand, but as long as it don't hurt me I suppose I can shoot a 'wrong-hand' action.
I have heard of the Serbu BFG-50 and of course the Armalite AR-50. I have never seen either one in person. I hear the AR-50 even comes left-hand. How do these two compare, and what else is within my price range?
