All good points and well made.

Setting aside the 50BMG, the question relates to a smaller capacity case that will run through either a long magnum action bolt gun or a 308 bolt face.

The 50 Peacemaker, 50 Alaskan and 510 Whisper are all good and useful cartridges but what are the characteristics that make them useful:

a. case capacity;

b. case dimensions;

c. velocity range; and finally

d. reloading ease/cost.

First two should indicate the third and point d is the thing you never tell your wife about!!
