    Some just don't know that other .50 semi autos other than Barrett do exist.

    Nice looking however, with the reciprocating barrel I would be concerned with long range accuracy, say 2,000 meters and/or maintaining long range accuracy which is what .50 cal browning is all about

    What sort of life cycle to maintain accuracy?

    I am part owner of one of these rifles. Fit, finish and attention to detail are immediately noticeable when you handle this firearm..... and there is a lot to look at. She is a formidable beast
    If you haven't handled or fired one you really can't pass judgement.
    My friend who was the original purchaser could elaborate more on specifics of accuracy , loads ect.
    I shoot the ammo he brings and pay my fair share. I've smashed a large cantelope at 1000M and frozen milk jugs as well.
    Haven't fired it at 2000m but I'll enquire if my friend has.
    Still a bit heavy to shoulder fire for a little guy like me but it's surprisingly do-able LOL

    almost as much fun as I've had with my pants on for sure.

    question I have is.... in the first video posted , I swear I know the guy with out the tactical gear on LOL was that filmed in Canada?

    The perfect firearm for when you have a bear cornered in a disused building.

    Hunting antelope or cantelope at 1000 is impressive
    pandering to paranoia produces pointless prosecutions of people

    I went down a rabbit hole reading about plastic sabots for 50bmg that carry a .338 bullet and the hunting some guys do with 50 bmg.
    personally I just like the destructive power and boom factor. It's absolutely a "toy" for blowing up stuff.
    I want to get a camera I can put down range and capture images at impact. We freeze colored water in 5 gallon pails then dump out the block of ice. So we aren't blowing up buckets and leaving plastic trash everywhere. Those look awesome when they explode. Shooting fruit is fun too but I've only hit the cantelope once. Watermelons are much easier..... frozen colored ice blocks are much cheaper

    Accuracy is sub-MOA with match grade ammunition. BArrel is good for 5k rounds, however spare barrels can be ordered and are installed easily without gunsmith
