We’re exaggerating a little, of course, but this really is the 50 BMG ammo you want for when you’re doing your fanciest shooting. In addition to being massive, the bullet is Hornady’s own A-Tip Match. It features an aluminum tip: longer and sleeker than a polymer one, which centers gravity and reduces instability better than a standard shorter polymer alternative (noting that Hornady previously loaded this ammunition with A-MAX projectiles). The A-Tip Match additionally features a flat DVRT meplat to increase drag uniformity, and an ogive, bearing surface, and boat tail that are all fine-tuned for one function: accuracy.
