History of 50 BMG Ammo

The .50 BMG was developed in the 1920s and has served in the U.S. military for 100 years. Many NATO countries use it as an anti-aircraft, anti-vehicular, armor-piercing machine gun, and sniper rifle cartridge. Law enforcement agencies and civilians also use it.

How Does The 50 BMG Compare To Other Calibers?

Caliber Recoil Pros Cons
50 Beowulf More Unmatched long-range performance and stopping power Expensive, lots of recoil, and few use cases for civilians (besides just being awesome)
.338 Lapua More More stopping power Expensive, Lots more recoil

    Great value for your money. I plan on buying more. I have fun shooting this caliber rifle. It helps with all my frustrations.

    Federal 50BMG in 660 grain FMJ is an excellent all-round 50BMG round, and as provided here at ammo.com is also a great value, especially in the 100 round box (10 boxes of 10 rounds each). I've been shooting this 50BMG round for almost as long as I've had my Barrett M82A1 and it performs well and I have yet to miss-fire or have issues chambering or cycling the rounds, even if ripping off multiple shots in quick succession [not easy at this caliber]. The brass is high quality and a good reload. I recommend this round to anyone who needs a general purpose FMJ round for practice or competition [caveat, I do not currently compete], for using "ready-made" rounds.

    This is decent steel cored M33 ball equivalent. Chronoed at 2875fps out of a 30” barrel. 2” groups at 100yds. Still fantastic and affordable ammo for 1000+ yard shooting and practice.
