    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

    Same thing he told me. It was at that point I decided I wanted the AR. Can't wait to see how these cases respond to magnum pressure!

    While the brass may hold up, I would suggest that you get a 50AE or 50Beo. The GI runs great @ 21,000 psi brass is not stressed @ all. I have about 10 reloadings on the 100 rds of brass that I have used now for over 1 year and the only problem was when working on different mags to run I destroyed 1 or 2 pcs due to mag issues. if you are looking to get Magnum power out of a 50 cal AR I have some hunting loads for the 50AR (in the AR) that will give you all the fun you can stand.

    when you say 50AR do you mean 50 Beowulf? Or a 50AE in an AR platform?
