.50 Beowulf Ammo Prices

Bill Alexander built this in the early 2000s to give the AR-15 a genuine big-bore half-inch thumper for close-range work on large game and heavy targets while feeding from modified magazines. It turns the little black rifle into a hard-hitting brush gun and it earned a strong following among hog hunters and big-bore AR enthusiasts. A serious way to make the AR hit like a sledgehammer. Big fun and big authority.

Loads run 300 to 400 grain in the modest offerings that exist. A specialty big-bore priced above the mainstream in small boxes. The big-bore AR crowd buys whenever it surfaces and reloads the rest.
