    So I take it you have an M2HB or M3HB. I suck at headspacing mine. Wanna come out and help? There will be 2 fbi agents shooting 50s as well, one on philly swat. I'd LOVE to see someone try and pull that on us.
    Don't .50 BMG's have rifling? And my buddy said something about an old guy who used to take care of the range, he said he hasn't been around lately.

    Not a pristine new round. Maybe on one fired into water. My 50s have 2 shapes - new shiney and flattened into the rock. Anything I ever recovered the jacket was stripped off, lead mangled.

    I'm sure the story has changed over the years. I have the M3, easy to headspace, got the gauges. I'll only go back there
    with my 50 if ungawa goes.

    I watched the videos, I have the gauges. Still not very straight forward to me. I'd love some in-person help. I'll let you squeeze off some 9mm full auto. I'll PM you date/time when we're going. You could always not bring your 50 and see how we do with ours.
