    ??? whats with all this semi auto .50bmg not being allowed, There is no law that says anything like that. There are few semi auto 50's because almost no one imports them.

    The only prohibited .50BMG firearms are ones listed by name, full auto's, etc.

    They're just rifles, bolt action or semi-automatic. And that includes the semi-auto repro's of the Browning M2.

    Oh how I wish I had more money (and open space) to play with one of these!

    It would be nice to have but where could you shoot it? The gun clubs in the Eastern Townships QC have caliber restrictions that limit anything above 30-378.

    Im pretty sure most ranges dont have that silly rule. And 30-378 is only a wimpy 30 cal anyway. Would my 35 Whelen be allowed at your range?

    There are a list of calibres that are approved for use at most ranges. .50s aren't allowed here...

    Nothing stopping you from taking it to a safe cutblock with a good backstop.

    The price for TSE's 50bmg ammo is exceptional, the "other guys" are still gouging their customers for 13-15 bucks per round.

    At 5-6 bucks per round it makes the 50 cal game a little more affordable. I remember rolling my own for that kind of money. Hopefully TSE can keep bringing them in consistently at that price.

    Well done guys,

    As long as you`re not shooting steel core ammo - can`t shoot that either.

    cam1936 - I agree. However I need to be a member at a gun club or else I lose my Law 9 status and the ability to transport my handguns.
