The new self defense .50 BMG
Here is my shiny new rifle. Its a bolt action 10 shot .50 BMG.
I have a total of 430 dollars in it.
I think its kind of cute.
What do you think?

It weighs 24 pounds and wears a Leupold Mk4 Tactical Mildot.
Just the thing for these pesky coyotes around here.

First thought, the BG's must really be upgrading tactics in your area.
Second thought: how do you only have $430 in that?

Well lets see...
the barrel blank cost 140.
the 10 shot Barrett magazine cost 145.
the "Limbsaver"recoil pad was 40.
the AR-15 lower parts kit was 60
the 4130 DOM tubing costs 35
and the springs and rubber feet cost 10.
The scope I took in a trade...so I didnt really count that but its a $1200 scope.
And I didnt count the six months it took me to build it.

Well, I will admit...
that it will be used for CoyDogs too.
They are a lot bigger than Coyotes.

The front view...

You'll notice that the barrel is free floated.The carry handle is made of Walnut and flips out of the way when not used.

I think II'll take one for $430, please! That's my scope's big brother, nice stuff. What'd you trade for it, if you don't mind my asking? Must've been something reaaaally nice. I wish I could get that in a trade...
