Not as many people cast their own bullets for the bmg due to the pressure and extreme fouling.

I would email Miss Moneypenny for sure. Last time I talked to her she had a bunch of linked ball and some loose tracer.

Can you imagine lead bullets in a 50 BMG??? Holy crap! It might look like Niagara Falls out of the end of the barrel.:gapteeth: Hell full metal jackets is what made the 50 BMG and other super caliber guns possible.

I have seen a few guys that did it. But they were all using a specific alloy that was pretty hard and they had loaded down quite a bit.

One big concern isthe bullet coming apart in the brake and ripping it off. Same reason you are not supposed to shoot SLAP rounds in a gun with a brake.
