I don't reload,but I have a question, There is a rifle that I saw some where, that shoots a .50 necked down to a .375. The ad states that it uses bronze bullets to achieve a speed of some 5,000 fps. It's called the Mach 5. Is this for real, or have I been fooled by a hoax?
How hard would it be to reload this round, if it is real? Would it take some kind of special tools?

Thanks,
