.50 Cal BMG Nickel Dummy Round — Hornady Match Grade A-Max Bullet

This is a genuine once-fired .50 BMG nickel-plated brass casing — real recovered military-surplus brass, not a machined or cast replica — hand-polished to a bright silver shine and fitted with a real Hornady A-Max Match Grade bullet, a genuine commercially available component with a sharp, precision-profile tip. That hand-finishing and real component sourcing is why this costs more than a mass-produced replica. The primer has been removed entirely for extra safety. Custom engraving is available. Prefer the standard brass finish, or a casing without a bullet? See our brass Match Grade version or our polished casing alone.

FAQs

Q: What makes this different from the brass version? A: This one is nickel-plated for a silver finish, and the primer has been fully removed rather than just spent.

Q: Is this safe to handle and display? A: Yes — primer removed entirely, no powder, completely inert and safe.

Q: Is there a way to get extra confirmation that this is genuinely inert? A: Yes — free of charge, on request. We can drill a small identifying hole through the casing, or insert a loose BB inside so it audibly rattles when shaken (a simple "rattle test" confirming there's nothing solid packed inside). Just contact us before shipping, and we're happy to add either option at no extra cost.

Q: When will my order ship? A: Most orders ship within 1 business day.
