The .50 caliber M2 Browning MG would have to be the ultimate boys toy.
Anybody know what they charge per round?

.50 cal BMG currently sells for between $3.20 and $6 USD per round, depending upon grade. $3.20 is bulk (100 rounds/can) purchase of military Ball rounds, while around $6 will get you match grade for anti-materiel rifle shoots.

A single M2HB on a ground mount is outstanding fun, especially when it was my taxes paying for it, rather than directly out of my own pocket.

I can only imagine that a twin AN/M2 in a ball turret must be a magnitude more fun!

Thanks Mike
I am tempted to come over for the Great Sandy Shoot, that would certainly be a hoot :thup2:

Dave,

This website will tell you all you need to know.

The .50 BMG M2HB ground mount rental is $4 per round (see under 'Rentals'), which I gather is a flat rate to shoot the weapon, so a standard liner would cost you $400 - and take less than a minute to send down range!

Next shoot is 22 to 24 March 2019.

Mike
