Choosing an optic for a .50 BMG rifle is about balancing durability, clarity, and precision. The Nightforce NXS 5.5-22x56 is a favorite for its rugged construction and excellent glass, perfect for handling the heavy recoil of a .50. If you want unparalleled clarity and precision, Schmidt & Bender and Tangent Theta are top-tier options, though they carry premium price tags. For those looking to save a bit of $ without sacrificing performance, the Vortex Razor HD line offers great features and a solid warranty. Don't overlook the Leupold Mark 5HD or Steiner T5Xi for their combination of durability and high-end performance. Prioritize optics with long eye relief, high elevation adjustment, and a reputation for recoil resistance. If you were outfitting the TAC 501, what optic would be on your radar to match this long-range powerhouse?

PRS’s new Sportsman Division introduces a 13-lb rifle limit and restricts calibers to 6.5 Creedmoor. While the weight cap encourages lighter, more versatile setups, the single-caliber rule is sparking debate. Is it a move to level the playing field or an unnecessary constraint that limits the division’s appeal? Some critics point to the seemingly odd weight limit: 13 pounds is rather heavy for a hunting setup (by 2024 standards) but perhaps prohibitively light for a PRS system. Thoughts?

Have you ever heard the “10x for 1000 yards” guideline when choosing scope magnification and thought it was oversimplified? While effective for large targets like 20" steel plates, it’s less well-suited for smaller or camouflaged targets at long range. Also, be cautious with cheap, high-power variables, as resolution often suffers at max magnification. First, define your mission, then choose the equipment to match. In your opinion, what are the top performers in the long-range optic competition?

Are you thinking of buying a lightweight hunting rifle to learn long-range shooting? It’s tempting, but here’s why a dedicated setup might serve you better: Weight: Hunting rifles are built to be light for easy carry, making them harder to control during long-range practice. Extra recoil can quickly wear you out, impacting training. Barrel Profile: Thin barrels in hunting rifles heat up and shift point of impact faster than heavy options like the TAC 501's 27.5" match-grade barrel. For extensive practice, a heavier steel barrel offers better stability and durability. Stock Profile: Adjustable stocks and chassis, like our Greyboe and Cadex options, help manage recoil and provide comfort, which many hunting rifles lack.

What’s the difference between accuracy and precision? Among novices in long-range shooting, accuracy, and precision are sometimes used interchangeably; however, this is incorrect. Accuracy asks the question, “Did the bullet go where I wanted it to?” Precision, however, is about repeatability. If you aim at a point on the target 10 times, do you consistently group shots in the same place, even if it’s not on the bullseye? For the TAC 501, accuracy is built into the weapons system, and the path to shooter precision has been made as clear as possible. Built with long-range engagement in mind, The Beast’s heavy, cut-rifled Lilja barrel, Cadex chassis, and Grayboe stock help shooters achieve tighter, consistent groupings. For shooters serious about repeatable precision, the TAC 501’s engineering allows you to do your part without worrying about anything but a gentle exhale and a measured press.
