H50 bmg

[COmtnman1]

It still might be worth buying so you have it to barter or trade for something else, very few shooters want to outright sell there stuff. Components are just to hard to come by.

PS: 8 pounds of powder is good to make only 200 rounds.
Ouch

What're you loading that you only get 200 rounds with 8lbs of powder??? I use 50BMG for my 30-378 Wby mag & get almost 500 rounds & that's a pretty big case.

8 pounds is good for only 200 rounds ?
That is in a .50 BMG case at 280 grains powder per cartridge ?

Yes Siri Bob, well a solid 270gr to 275gr anyways.

That's why I said 238 rounds only using 235 grs...it's so much quieter!

I think this powder is discontinued?

I think this powder is discontinued?

they stopped importing for a while, then re-started a while ago... It blows 175's out of my 7rum well so I have a decent amount on hand, but I could use 872, 869, or rl50 also I suppose.

I've had good luck with 8133 in my nosler.

I can get 620 rounds plus or minus out of an 8 lb jug in my 338 Edge...

I have a custom 7mm Rem Mag with a long throat that I use 80 grn of 50bmg to push 168grn bergers at 3130fps and it has single digit velocity spreads and is very accurate.

That will suck in a 270, but it would probably make a good trade bait. Some guys have started using it in stuff like 300 norma imp.
