How many of you reload .50 Action Express bullets? How much would the minimum setup for reloading .50AE?

    Minimum is the same as it would be for any other cartridge. A basic reloading kit (like the RCBS rockchecker kit), dies and a micrometer would be the bare essentials. In my experience, it is not necessary to trim .50 AE brass. It costs me about $0.38/ shot to reload .50 AE(double that if you don't have brass). The biggest advantage to reloading this cartridge is that you can take advantage of it's full potential. The .50 AE is fully capable of developing in excess of 1700 ft/lbs.

    Save the seals-club a liberal instead.
