I believe you can use magnum loads in the bergara barrel. If im wrong i know someone will correct me. I also believe you can get a little flatter shooting gun with the .45 and lighter bullets then the 50 but some will argue with that and also argue with knock down capability. I only shoot whitetail so im not worried and its also legal to use a .45 here in ohio where some states dont allow it.
