Awsome! Simply awsome! Thanks for putting in the work and comming out with a great product we can all enjoy. Yet one other platfomr for us to enjoy 50GI! But what's the velocity out of the longer barrel? The the longer barrel help build up the velocity much? And if so how much? How was the recoil? THIS sound like a great home defense gun! Keep spewing details. You put that much time and effort into the final product, how about a longer review. Who knows when a gun magazine will take notice, please feel free to give us some nitty gritty details to read. 475AR you are my hero of the month!
The velocity is 1235fps out of the 16" and 1110fps out of the 8" (both above the group pics for each.)
The recoil is very mild it is more of a stright back push then a slamming hard kick, look @ both videos and watch the muzzle rise there is very little. I have recovered some bullets and they do expand out of the 8" gun. I will be testing other bullets and powders with the GI as it is a great round.
As for the longer review, this is a work in progress and I will be doing/posting more.
Is there any chance of showing us one in full auto?
Don't know bout anybody else, but I for one am pretty excitted about a 50GI in an AR platform!
That's where you can really push those sturdy little cases to their max. What an awsome rifle, I can think of ton's of fun. I for sure will be purchasing one of those in the near furture!
Yes i think its very cool also..I was talking to Alex the other day and he said that the 50gi starline brass can hold up to heavy magnum pressures..but he does not recommend it due to the fact that the glock and the 1911 pistols will gain more wear and tear hence shorter lifespan of your gun from a magnum loaded 50gi cartridge....But it looks as though the Ar15 platform could be a good candidate to try out a magnum loaded 185gr SCHP.....I guess we will just have to wait and see
