    Love my guns but this doesn't get me very excited. It's certainly affordable but it's like shooting a muzzle loader. OK until the shots fired but the dread starts after. I think I need the followup "bang" much sooner.
    Money isn't everthing. It's just something needed to purchase anything.

    My RN-50 arrived last night and it looks good. If you want faster follow up shots go buy a bolt action or semi.. I doubt youve ever even held one of these or seen one in person. The cap on the end comes off quickly reloads could be done in 20 seconds if i had to guess, ive shot muzzle loaders its not even a fair compairison what you are saying. With how expensive ammo is for a 50bmg i think this or even a bolt is ideal.

    I shoot a Savage Mod 10 ML with smokeless powder.
    Can reload in 30 sec. The point is it has a slow follow up shot and so does this. That's why I shoot a bolt 50.
    This reminds me of a Cooey single shot vs a Volquartson 22 semi auto. Both shoot but ends there.

    Its completly asinine comparing a 22lr single shot and a 22lr semi auto to any action type of 50bmg.. One of those calibres is over 50 times more powerful than the other.

    I dont see why you need fast follow up shots when shooting steel or paper and i doubt anyone is taking one of these hunting and actually needs a fast follow up shot. My point is your points are sort of pointless. I would respect anyone who walks around hunting with a 20+ pound rifle.

    He's uhh, not. He's comparing a single shot .22 to a semi .22. Then suggesting that the similarities between those two guns mirror the similarities between the RN50 and a bolt .50.

    I get that. I just think its a bad analogy with ammo cost differences, magnitudes more power, and how unpractical a 50bmg is.

    ...I think you're reading a bit too much into this. He wants to shoot fast. Can't with the RN-50. Ammo cost/practicality is not relevant.

    Are you taking over, or are you taking orders?
