Here is my fisrt shot with my new .50 BMG rifle!!!

The gun is made by East Ridge / State Arms Gun Co. it is the "Rebel" model.

and btw, I love the trigger, there is no slack in it when you pull it. It fires right away. The only thing I wasn't too fond of was the fact this gun does not have a safty, but other than that, I LOVE IT!!!

I wonder how many youtubers will flip s*&% because you put the camera there, lol, there are plenty of "armchair range officers" out there.

That looked fun, southern fun.

That's a high angle opposum........ Did you deliberately set the target like that for the camera?

The rifle is SWEET btw! Good looking piece.

Sweet .50 cal, those things are really ***** expensive too.

How much is the ammo on it?

opposum · « **Reply #7 on:** February 23, 2010, 08:00:19 PM »

We spent like 400 dollars on 80 rounds of regular ball ammo

it looks like I am shooting high because the camera is setting down the hill we were on, we never moved the target

Learn to start reloading your own, you can beat five bucks a round easily. As an added bonus you can tweak the powder charge to the gun for added accuracy. If you really want to get super-accurate you can do many other time consuming things. I always loved to reload as it gave me time more bang for my buck so to speak. Not only did I get to reload it, a relaxing task for me, I got to shoot it in the end.

A better question, what are you doing shooting at 200 yards! Multiply that by 3 or 5 and your getting somewhere.

Who cares?

Rule number one (in my book) don't point the gun at anything you can't replace.

He did not do a thing wrong in my book, camera can be replaced....

Oakranger, I would venture guess closer to 3,500-4,500...and yes they are heavy!
