Really want one, could y'all explain a cheap (Relatively) way of acquiring one. Also, if anyone has one I would appreciate your thoughts on it.
Thanks
Thanks
Bummer.Its a thumper round. Theres really no cheap way to attain one. Just save your pennies and order one when you get enough scratch.
Nah. by the time you build the lower youre still spendin the same money if you just bought it.
I just googled it, I've read it named dropped a couple of time in various other forums, (I always thought it was wildcat cartridge for bolt action rifles) had no idea it was built ground-up for AR-15s. Very cool.I personally want a .458 socom. Thats my dream AR upper.
The Beowulf, or the SOCOM? Not that it matters I live Georgia and I don't have the dough anyway.A local guy was (maybe still is?) selling his for $2500. I like it but not that much.
Ive got a RRA LAR6, so all I need is a LAR458 upper. 775 bucks.. Maybe tax season.. hoorah..
I have one and I LOVE IT!!!!!Really want one, could y'all explain a cheap (Relatively) way of acquiring one. Also, if anyone has one I would appreciate your thoughts on it.

Beowolf, I got an Lar458 3 years ago as my reward for quitting cigarettes. Bought the die and brass and 300 Gr hollow points. Fantastic rifle. RRA (Rock River Arms) guarantees a 1.5" group at 100 yds out of the box. Dropped a deer this year at 70 yds with it. Didn't have a chance to run, dropped right in its tracks. HAd it at the local range last year and the guy next to wanted to know what I was going to use that "mini-mortar" for.I personally want a .458 socom. Thats my dream AR upper.
Nice!I have one and I LOVE IT!!!!!
Last year I took 5 shots and dropped 5 deer all in 4 hours.(DPMS farm tags)
The only draw back that I can see is I needed to get the ear plugs that let you hear what is going on around you but shuts down The big bang when I fire.
This is a loud gun when I am hunting and take a shot every one around knows it's me shooting.
I think this gun is well worth the investment for what I needed.AND WANTED!

PS.One thing I get a kick out of is when I am walking down my road from one spot to another(this is a dirt road with 4 houses on it that is a dead end and 8 miles long)If someone drives by (there are 5 hunting camps on my road) they stop and say "thats not a .223 with that muzzle what the he** is it?"When they are told that it's a .50 cal I usually here "Remind me not to trespass on your land".
I got this buck last year.
That cartridge really put the smack down on that deer, the damage is brutal lookin'!Beowolf, I got an Lar458 3 years ago as my reward for quitting cigarettes.

Here are some pics of my deer this year. The first one is of the general area anf the second is of the spine after I cut the back strap out. The bullet left a wound permanent channel almost 3" in diameter.
Nice!
Yeah, those muzzle brakes are louder than a fog horn; but they're great for recoil reduction. Slap a limb saver on there and it'll probably be one of the most comfortable big-bore gun you got. ?![]()
THe venison so far has tasted great.Nice!

Neat.
How was the venison!?![]()
What is it doing (or not doing).I am currently having a terrible situation with my beo. I was so excited when I got the beo in but when I went to shoot it the darn thing had 3 issues that made it the most expensive big bore sculpture I have purchased. The worst part was trying to send it in to Alexander arms, they took 4 months to fix it after telling me 2 weeks tops. I got it in last week and I just shot it 4 days ago and it's still not working. Alexander arms has botched my rifle and refuses to refund me. Don't make the mistake i did...But if you do like mistakes then mine is for sale
You have opened a four year old thread to complain about your rifle.I am currently having a terrible situation with my beo.
