I load 50 BMG and shoot in FCSA matches. If you plan to get into loading for your 50, I highly suggest you start watching for either sales on the press and dies, or someone selling off their equipment. I started off with Lee 50 BMG equipment, but it did not fit my requirements. I found a Christmas sale on the Hornady Setup and changed to using that. Many, love their Lee 50 BMG press/dies, and have good success, I didn't. I use Lee presses and dies for all of my smaller calibers and they work perfectly for those.
I shoot 800 gr Lehigh Solid Brass Borerider's (my gun prefers this bullet/powder combo) , and prefer them over the Amax. But, I have a Borerider Match chamber, and could not get Amax's to shoot accurately in my setup. A lot of guys shoot with VV20N29 Powder, but many, including myself, have moved over to Reloader 50 (for projectiles over 750 gr.) Much of my decision was the fact that the 20N29 went above $240 for an 8 lb jug, and I bought a bunch of RL-50 for $145 per 8 lb jug (caught a deal). When you get 28 rounds per pound (my loading) savings add up.
I also prefer the Solid brass over the Amax, because I've found their weight tolerances much closer, their length consistency, and their price better. My buddy shoots the 808 gr Lehigh (his gun, with identicle chamber/barrel, etc prefers them over the 800's). also with RL-50, due to lower price of powder, yet just as accurate if not better at times.
As LA50Shooter stated, get good equipment, if you plan to shoot for accuracy with the 50. I, personally, have found that the 50 cases have far more nuances than my smaller calibers do. One "for instance" that I've found, (in my situation) is the fact that my 50 cases do NOT perform as well when only Neck Sized. I get better results when FL resizing bumping my shoulder .002". I also anneal after every firing, it's what works best for me. YMMV.
I also use home made spray lube instead of Imperial Sizing Wax. I prefer the simplicity, and ease of using it. I like to be able to spray my cases from a 45° down angle and not only lube the ouside of my case, but inside the neck as well. All, in one motion. I use the "home made" because it's cheaper than buying the store bought spray lube. And with the quantity I use each year, it saves me money, which means more rounds to shoot
If I can help in any way, don't hesitate to PM me. I try to check this forum several times a week.
