Unlikely as it seems, the big .50 Beowulf rounds stack and feed from regular AR magazines. Instead of the regular double-stack feed, the rounds fit in a single stack. To load, use the cartridge base to press artillery down the magazine follower ahead of artillery the teed lips and slide artillery the round beneath the lips. Seven rounds fit the same space as 10.223 cartridges. Feeding is in a straight line and proved completely reliable. No malfunctions of any kind occurred over the firing of 200 rounds. The ejection port is enlarged slightly and the port cover deleted to ensure smooth cartridge ejection. In addition to its survival/defensive role, the .50 should make a useful short range hunting cartridge. Bill Alexander comments it is being used by southern-state hog hunters, who fit big low-light scopes and hunt from stands. The rifle makes a most impressive package when fitted with a Zeiss Conquest 3-12X56mm scope.
