Armalites AR-50
How accurate are these Armalite AR-50 rifles. The price is very, very cheap for a 50 BMG, about $2500. If the accuracy is sub-MOA then I may have to pick one up.

Thanks,

They are capable of sub-moa accuracy. My only dislike of the AR-50 is that they have a tremendous amount of freebore. On the other hand, they are very easy to rebarrel and many AR-50 shooters have done just that. With a match barrel installed, these rifles have placed high at the matches. They are a very stable shooting platform and quality made. These rifles are not ambi, they are a real PITA to try and shoot from the other side.

Thanks,

I wouldn't have thought that they were capable of sub MOA with the factory barrel.
