Feeding a 50 BMG is never cheap, so owners look for consistent ammunition they can buy by the case. This listing is PMC X-TAC Match 50 BMG 740 grain solid brass bullet ammo, MPN 50XM, sold as 100 rounds. It suits long range shooters, 50 caliber match competitors, and owners of big bolt actions and semi-autos who want a uniform load for extended sessions. It is also a solid way to gather consistent velocity data for long range ballistic solvers.
PMC rates 50XM at 2,830 fps. The 740 grain bullet is turned from solid brass rather than built as a lead core inside a jacket, which gives uniform construction from round to round and a long, streamlined profile for distance shooting. That consistency matters at the ranges where the 50 BMG is typically fired. It is a long range target load, not a hunting round.
It fits rifles chambered in 50 BMG, also called 12.7x99mm, including the Barrett M82 and M107, Barrett M99, Serbu BFG-50, Armalite AR-50, McMillan Tac-50, Noreen ULR, and Bohica and other 50 BMG uppers. A common question is whether 50 BMG is legal to own. It is legal in most states, but California restricts 50 BMG rifles and some localities have their own rules, so check before you buy. Another common question is whether ranges allow 50 BMG. Many do not, because of backstop limits, so confirm with your range and look for facilities that host 1,000 yard or 50 caliber events.
PMC 50XM is new production ammunition, not reloads, loaded by PMC in South Korea. Cases are reloadable brass with boxer primers, and the load is non-corrosive. This listing ships as 10 boxes of 10 rounds for 100 total, all from one lot, which keeps velocity and point of impact consistent for long range data collection. Big 50 caliber brass is also valued by handloaders.
