Most all the guys I know (which would be only three) that shoot .50s on a semi-regular basis handload ammo. One of them, who acctually uses his to cull deer with loads some super heavy soft point, no clue where he gets them. Loads them down to keep them sub-sonic. The results are somewhat impressive to say the least.

There is some ammo called Extreme Shock, not yet available at Midway USA, but it is a frangible bullet.
