Default RE: 50 BMG aNyOnE?

Really just got the 50 the shoot some LR paper and bang some steel. My nephew and I had a chance to get things rolling shooting Barrett's M33 661gr to start out with, we had no problem dialing in on a 8x14 inch plate at 530 yards. I have a bit of work to do at greater distances due to getting some good size berms put up. I sure do want those slugs zipping through our pastures. While there is some pretty stout muzzle blast, the recoil is nothing. It does kick up debris while shooting prone off the ground, even off a shooting mat. All in all, it's fun to shoot and it wont be to long that I will be handloading for it.
Here's a pic of of a LE friend of mine just after clanging steel.
