If the guys thought the [url="http://www.hunt101.com/img/084667.jpg"]MACH V[/url]was a handfull,this year [url="http://www.hunt101.com/img/082949.JPG"]BOOMER[/url]will be going along! The [url="http://www.hunt101.com/img/061474.JPG"]ROUND[/url]is made by running a 50BMG case into two [url="http://www.hunt101.com/img/084659.JPG"]DIES[/url]with a big [url="http://www.hunt101.com/img/084660.JPG"]PRESS[/url]to[url="http://www.hunt101.com/img/061772.JPG"]NECK[/url]it down.Then it is inside neck reamed,cut to length and outside neck turned then fire formed. I have not done a lot of reloading for this round yet as parts are spendy.The load I got with the gun sent a 250grain Barns through the crony @ 4450fps with 209 grains of 872.The load we used last summer was 205grains of H50BMG(very mild) behind a 250grain Barns or 260 grain [url="http://www.hunt101.com/img/084656.JPG"]NOSLER BT[/url]@ 3750fps.Klaus claimed to have gotten 5300fps out this animal,I dont doubt it just havent had the balls to go there yet! Met a friend of Klauses last week at a 50BMG shoot that has a 42" barreled MachV (375/50BMG) and knows a little more about this round but havent sat down to realy get into it with him....yet. I have some 272grain Groove bullets and GS Customs to try when I can get my hands on some more 872 and or 20n29 powder. CJ [/QUOTE]
