I've got a 50cal Kentucky

Yeah like I said the previous Springfeilds were all in .66

54in from butt to muzzle

Like line infantrymen would use a .58 cal ball in a musket, and jaegers would use .36-38 cal in a rifled barrel

I'm speaking of as an example

I'm just bragging lol

I think the Prussian standard issue In 7 years war was .58

I want one

I have a modern .50 muzzleloader for hunting blackpowder tags

But I'd like an old Prussian army musket from between silesian wars, 7years war, or Napoleonic

My great uncle has a Rifle used by a Mecklenburg-Schwerin dragoon at the battle of Leipzig...the battle that truly sealed Napoleons fate

Oh I mean I can't speak for the barbarian hordelands. Just American ordinance.

Mecklenburg gang

Prussia in 7 years war was insane

I'm a Texan...so Texas Revolution was lit

I've off and on considered moving to TX. As of now the money is not quite right.

Its cheap here

Except austin

The issue is the population growth is fucked

Towns of 36,000 in 2000, are 90,000 now

To many are moving in from California

Were fastest growing region in country

Well yeah that's kinda the problem. On projection I am worth 20% more there but the CoL could overrun that so maybe better to stay here.

My sister wants me to move to CO.

@Duke of Mecklenburg If only you had the ability to ban people from California becoming residences in your communities.

Too bad we've got that pesky Interstate Commerce Clause

@Fitzydog Hey, wait for me to live this shithole first.

@Veritas Prognostician You'll find a town that will accept you.

But I want towns to be able to make that choice to begin with.

I agree

Ban em

.50 BMG isn't right for SHTF imo, I'd want something that's fast and easy to operate, reliable, light and with ammo availability enough to last me the duration of the fan

gotta get those 50bmg double taps down

challenging with a bolt action

50bmg is over hyped. 416 Barrett is the superior round

it probably depends on the purpose

which heavy machine gun fires the 416?

It’s a long range rifle round

well then it's not superiour to .50 bmg

Effective range is something like 500 yards beyond the 50bmg

does it come in SLAP or Raufoss?
