Default 2300 grains of powder.......

2300 grains of powder and a little over a pound of bullets and I was able to load 10 rounds of 50 BMG.

With the election going the way it did I was bummed today and decided to roll some 50's while I still can.. Not much different from 223's other than everything is bigger and easier to hold.


Resizing the case....





Repriming the case with a CCI #35





Weighing the powder, 230 grs H50BMG....





Seating the 750 gr A Max....




Ahhhh, here we havea handfullrounds....
