The .50 GI has developed a reputation for accuracy, though this may be due to the high precision of the semi-custom and very expensive Guncrafter pistols themselves. In one test, the 300 grain (19 g) jacketed flatpoint (JFP) gave a 25-yard group of 2.56 inches, and the 300-grain Jacketed hollow point (JHP) and 275-grain JHP gave a 25-yard group ...
