sweet Mary mother of god, please for the love of all that is holy and pure do not just bring in those crappy lee dies.... redding please.

that being said

please put me on the list for this, i want one like a fat kid wants cake

p.s. i am so getting the look form the wife as im posting this.

p.p.s. yes you can put .223 in a .50b mag but you have to modify the feed lips to feed .50b in a .223 mag

X2 for the Redding dies

Love the .50 upper! Any chance we may ever see there infamous 17HMR semi auto?

What about a 458 Socom pistol and properly marked 10 round pistol mags?

More from the Alexander Arms site:

Will the Beowulf® magazine feed .223 shells?

No, it will not.

Can any .223 magazine be used in the .50 Beowulf®?

Yes, but the feed lips must be modified. The feed lips need to be opened up to allow for the much larger cartridge. In addition, a new follower needs to be installed to allow for the single stack configuration of the Beowulf® cartridge.

I'm guessing that if you tried to load .223 into a Beowulf magazine, it most likely wouldn't function.

.458 socom uses unmodified AR15 mags. I believe .450 bushmaster does as well.

I'm just going by what it says on the Alexander Arms/Teppo Jutso websites. I've never handled any of those calibers.

I'm in for an upper, dies, etc.
Any chance of a 6.5Grendel upper as well?

[phnol]

all in!

[Armtac]

AA indicated to me that the 10 rounds .50 mags will likely be able to use .223 Rem, however, u will have some feeding problem with the last round.

We will announce the price next week or so.

I'm interested in the 6.5 grendel as well.

[Vincent1213]

I would also be interested in the 6.5 Grendel.

I've wanted a big bore AR for a long time... Thanks so much for endeavoring to bring them to the Canadian market.
