Thanks for the link GREYGHOSTt :cool:

Yeah I've compared shooting the BMG to my 338 UM and realistically it isn't THAT much more expensive. Especially since I was paying $2.50 a round for loaded 338UM before I started reloading for it. 2x the powder, primers are 10x the cost but the bullets and brass are comparable...

So I was looking at swaging my own bullets. Both Corbin and REC LLC have presses that they say will make BMG bullets. The press could also double as a reloading setup and I could swage cheap lead pistol bullets as well (so it would not just be for BMG bullets) So the big ticket items needed...

When fire forming do you use a live round or something like the cream of wheat trick? I like the idea of the improved case but I'm not sure if I want to sign up for that much work. With the cost of BMG components going up all the time it is going to be an expensive rifle to feed. But on...

Oh, any thoughts on the BMG Improoved?

Thanks for the input. I've not any brand bias so I'm just looking for what will be the best for the money. I'm not stuck on a 36" barrel but thought it was needed for the 750 gr and heavier bullets? As for the muzzle brake I want the most effective brake I can buy. I've got a JP...

So I picked up a .50 BMG action a little while back. It is a McBros Fisher action and I'm looking at getting the parts together to build the rifle. The first major part I guess would be the barrel. I've been doing some research and come up with a list of barrel makers who have 50 cal...

I've got the JP brake on my 338 UM and a buddy of mine has the Badger Ordinance brake on his 338-300 UM. My JP brake reduces recoil a fair amount more this his brake. Everyone who has shot my rifle comments on how little recoil it has. I've not tried many other muzzle brakes but the JP is by...

I have the JP muzzle brake on my .338 UM. I would say it has less kick shooting 250gr Game Kings then my 30-06 with 175gr bullets. Before I put the brake on it wasn't a whole lot of fun to pull the trigger. Now I can shoot my ultramag all day without any problems.

On some forums (not sure about Accurate Reloading) the icon for the post changes if you have ever posted in that discussion. It makes it easier to remember what topics you have posted in to check for replies.
