Default 50 bmg as a shtf tool

Want to say thanks to the calgunner who invited me up!! Thanks also for letting me shoot your gun!!!!!

Until yesterday I didn't really see the need for a 50 during shtf, I have changed my mind about that. I think a bolt action 50, either with or without a magazine, is a tool to stop certain targets. Targets at extreme distances or large hardened targets coming up your driveway are a few things I can think of. It wouldn't be the rifle to bug out on foot with, but it might just save your life if the bad guys have a large truck or are hiding behind cars/trees and shooting back.

Before you make up your mind I suggest you go to one of the 50 bmg matches like I did and enjoy the show. Its really something to shoot clay pigeons at 1000yds.
