Nickel Plated 50 BMG

[schoots]

Is there such a thing ? If so by who ?

 

[Wolverine .303]

Ammo or rifle?

Cause if you are after a rifle I have never seen or heard of one before, darn thing would be gleaming like a small but powerful sun from 3.2 klicks!!

Ammunition is kinda the same.. never seen any before, but crazier things have happened.

Sure its nickel plated?
Proof ammo is tin plated.
Brg 50 cal ammo has been made with a steel case variously plated giving a bright finish.

Why? Nickel fouling can be very hard to remove.
