50 BMG

[Forty Rod SASS 3935]

Does anyone here load these rounds?

I used to. When I shot 50 BMG benchrest.  But I sold my gun, press, dies etc. when I has the stroke. Too much gun for a pretty messed up guy.

Looking for one empty case and one jacketed bullet.  Making a black lacquered swagger stick like I had when I was a 2LT in 1965.  My kid sister gave to me when I was commissioned and it just vanished about 35 years ago.

 

No one seems to make them any more, but I met this guy with a lathe, the skills, and the  dimensions.

This guy on ebay might be what you're looking for: https://www.ebay.com/itm/134097842594?itmmeta=01HWEZ21PT6J8EFC811EBXENQQ&hash=item1f38dab1a2:g:oggAAOSwystiZ0-k&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAAwEzmUvXBXytHixVXigv62IUBtoWRs9sYWMol%2BPXCddpvoiKiWButJM%2B3p07w3r0nNXq7IZsbCsgPItcwBqK8e07Lz4KANux0B%2BySerldzSm1I57yG83Htc4tYQfaOb0%2BpGW90k%2BqF%2FNtvrmIml8nMLG90av6Fyq9xSJ2w%2BXXbRR9iohIMTAEqnenWgnJHz9eV8XoVfwXvjzGDfy%2BYbKCAxI4oOsB9B4HWGqIO%2BRmqgOzJdadQWxYoRNZFrli3WPCSw%3D%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR8ibiN_jYw

@Forty Rod SASS 3935 do you plan on having the primer in the brass?

Used to, just sold off the last of my brass and powder.  It’s an expensive round to load.  Might have a single brass left.

Nope.  That's where the wood screw goes to hold the butt on.

From the description of the guy on ebay, he leaves the primer hole open which sounds like it would serve your purpose.

I have 3 scrap brass that I will send you for cost of shipping.   One has a shoulder dent, the other two are not perfect necks.  Would work fine for your project.
