Late night pizza and discussions yield strange ideas. I was chatting with a friend about reloading her .50 bmg in hard times, and she mentioned possibly trying cast lead bullets for practice. We started looking at molds online, and the thought occurred.... wouldn't it be hilarious to try the big .50 in black powder? Just imagine the flame and smoke!
So....
1. Has anyone been crazy enough to do this?
2. Would it be safe?
3. What kind of velocities and pressures might happen?
