Me thinks unless you reload you'll need a 2nd mortgage to feed your AR .50 Beowulf

got one, ammo is going to be your biggest challenge, hard to get and if a reloader components are even harder, primers and such.
but is a great shooter and hey is a 50 in a M4 body, whats not to like.

I havent even gotten my 5.56 and now I am gonna have to buy 2... these look like a lot of fun. It does however look like ammo may be a problem since it proprietary.

I've shot them. They're good guns.
If you're wanting it for long range accuracy (over 400 yards is what I consider long range) then look elsewhere. They lose a lot of velocity and have a heckuva bullet drop at extended range.
But they're awesome for what they were intended. They are similiar to a shotgun slug in many ways.
