I am going to be doing some 50BMG reloading for my McMillan TAC-50 here soon and I am wondering what ya'll might recommend as good brass to start collecting/buying.
I have experience doing 50bmg reloading for a Barret <I forget what model> semi-auto and my requirements there for accuracy/consistency are not as high as they will be for the TAC-50.
I saw on Midway some sales for Magtech brass, which had some poor reviews.
With the Barret, I have been shooting Federal XM33 ball stuff and it has either Lake City or Winchester IIRC. I assume (I didn't buy the stuff, just shot it) that was pulled and re-built. The brass, after clean up, resizing, and trimming seemed to be of decent quality.
In other words, I would like to get some quality brass that I can reload a number of times and get the most consistent results from. I am not opposed to buying rounds to shoot for practice with and get decent brass from.
What are the options out there?
Also, if anybody has experience with the TAC-50 and would like to share load data, I plan on using Hornady A-MAX 750s with H689 powder (new to me, but recommend by the shop near me and probably H50BMG that I have had good luck with with the other 50.
