The worst thing about shooting a .50 is the over pressure from the muzzle break... imagine someone whacking you over the nostrils to simulate it.


BTW Bohdi,
Suhweeet! I'm a little ignorant on the .50's rifles.
What make/model is it?
How much does it weigh?
Is that a Leupold MkIV M1 scope on it?
I notice the scope is mounted kind of high judging from a lack (apparently) of a proper cheek weld. Can you get an adjustable cheek piece for that?

It's an Armalite 50, correct on the scope, and it is over 25lbs.

The scope is mounted on a riser, and I would never place my cheek on that damn thing in any way, shape, or form, lest it rip it off when it comes back.

I was talking about putting the cheek piece on the stock. It appears you've got your lower cheek resting on/against it.

Bodhi,

I was thinking about getting the armalite .50 I have always wanted to know if the muzzle break really does work as advertised. Ad says that it kicks no more than a 12ga. How true is that? Since you have owned it for a while would you recommend getting one or different manufacture? Thanks!
