The Barrett Model 13317 .50 BMG rifle package is a semi-auto rifle system with a 29" barrel. Package includes a Leupold Mark 4 4.5-14X50 Scope and ZERO-GAP Ultra High rings. Rifle system also includes a pelican case, one 10-round magazine, carry handle, flip-up iron sights, M1913 optics rail, detachable adjustable bipod legs, sling attach points, cleaning kit and owner's manual.Perfection isn’t accomplished overnight. Nowhere is this more apparent than in the Model 82A1. For more than two decades, this short-recoil, semi-automatic series rifle has been carefully honed, studied and then refined again. The result is a feat of engineering so impossibly precise, it’s hard to believe it’s man-made.
Unlike other semi-automatic .50 BMG rifles, the Model 82A1 is completely reliable. Its chamber is chrome-plated and dimensioned for both civilian and military ammunition. The extractor and ejector are proven to work under any condition, and close tolerances on every part allow it to function in all environments.
The .416 caliber alternative further adds to the allure of the Model 82A1. With enhanced accuracy and stability, not to mention a significantly higher muzzle velocity, the .416 offers incredible long-range precision.
Its re-engineered muzzle brake, dual barrel springs and long mainspring design make the 82A1 comfortable and — dare we say — exciting to shoot.
The Model 82A1 fits into a regular sized carrying case. Although it’s transported as a disassembled upper and lower receiver, it can be ready to fire in under a minute by simply inserting two assembly pins through both receivers. The scope remains mounted on the upper receiver, maintaining scope zero. The rifle’s M1913 optics rail is tapered 27 MOA to take full advantage of the scope’s elevation travel.
Emergency iron sights provided.

particular item.
The 50 Browning Machine Gun (50 BMG, 12.7X99mm) cartridge was developed by John Browning in 1918. His heavy machine gun was adopted in 1923 and, amazingingly, has been in service ever since. The current military M2 cartridge uses a 720-grain .510-inch bullet at 2810 fps, developing 12,600 ft-lbs of energy and offer an effective range of at least 3000 yards. In a heavy machine gun the 50 BMG is simply awesome, but in recent years Ronnie Barrett's big bolt-actions designed around the 50 BMG cartridge have given this old warhorse an entirely new dimension. Spurred by feats of military snipers in Southwest Asia, civilian long-range shooters are now enjoying the 50 BMG. With new interest and new uses 50 BMG ammunition is getting a much-needed facelift, with both match-grade ammo and bullets designed for hunting being added to the mix.
