I'm new to 50 BMG & still in the process of setting up. I have all my tools that I know I need ether at the house or in the mail with the exception of a primer pocket uniformer that I plan to make myself.
I had a box of factory ammo that is Hornady. I've shot 4 of them so I have 4 pieces of brass so far with the rest ordered & hopefully in the mail. I already have primers & powder (WC872) should be here today. APIT are ordered & scheduled for tomorrow.
I went with Lee tooling. I bought another Classic Cast, Lee FL & seater die, shell holder for the press, large trimming shell holder, large cutter, & mandrel.
I don't have a specific question at the moment but I'd like for those that have loaded for this cartridge to offer any tips & tricks you have. Pictures of your setup are welcome. I'd love to see what your doing.
I'm thinking about measuring powder for this caliber by scoop & trickling up on the scale/dispenser.
