.50 Beowolf

[WOMACK03]

I decided that I needed to take control of the Hog problem at my deer lease in Abilene. As if I needed a thinly veiled reason to buy another rifle.

Meet the Honey Badger. I have put my deposit down for the ECHO trigger, so "Don't Give A Shit" will actually be used. Still waiting on the trigger, grips etc.

Awesome. Can't wait to hear about the first shoot. I want to build one of these as my next build.

They are very very uncomfortable to shoot, hehe.

Jason, that makes my penis hard. Nice rifle, man.

You are close enough to me, that we can go to a local range, and you can shoot it soon.

Thanks for the heads up CJ. I ordered the limbsaver for the magpul, so hopefully it will help.

Miss you buddy. You need to come play golf with me. I moved to a house on the Duck Creek golf course in Garland.

Why .50 Beowulf instead of .458 SOCOM or .450 Bushmaster?

because .5 is bigger than .4x?

[Nash B.]

That's a good reason. I went with 458 SOCOM when I built mine years ago because they delivered similar energy, 458 had quite a bit more bullet selection/availability, and it feeds in standard 5.56 mags. Just wondering if either of the first 2 had changed much/any or even weighed into the decision.

Really just to play on the "Honey Badger" theme. I have a ton of .45 cal stuff, so I wanted my first .50. 1.35/ round isn't that bad either, although I got the reloading dies, to further reduce that cost. The .50/.458/.450 are all so close performance wise, it was kid of hard to choose between them.

That would be awesome. I have my ar pistol I just finished I need to take out. So we could have a fun little range day.

Looks like a fun project but I must point out that pigs die just as quickly from a hit from a 5.56 as they do from a big bore anything for about 15% of the cost per shot fired.

Like you, I can not wait for my ECHO trigger to show up.

[WOMACK03]

My reloading gear is starting to trickle in, and I put a Timney in it until the ECHO exists, so it is ready to sight in.
I am going to the lease Oct. 14th, so hopefully I will have some photos of the devastation caused by the 400gr. soft points.

Ammo arrived!
