My son just bought a new upper for his AR15 in 50 Beowulf. I have been reading about it and it sounds like it is very similar to my 500 S&W Magnum. Have any of you loaded for this caliber? I find data in Hornady's Manual #9 but the other manuals do not seem to offer information for it. I'll let you know when we have a chance to see how it performs with some factory loads.

Hornady's 300gr FTX and 500gr FP/XTP and Sierra's 350gr JHP.

Also have some data from Anderson Arms (developer of the round). I was hoping to find someone with first hand experience with the round. It looks like it is going to be a fun one.
