Here's a link to the ballistics:

http://www.alexanderarms.com/beowulf_ballistics.pdf

With the 334 grain bullet -- it appears zeroing at 50 yards will put it near zero at 100 yards as well.

Yep, looks like a 50 ZERO will be fine out to 125 for hunting.

Wish I could get these stats for my 45 colt carbine or the 454 carbine.  I can only find it for revolvers.

 I can get it for my sons' 44 mag carbine but it looks like the 45 and 454 are orphans!

went to the gun show today and came home with a Bushmaster V match flattop bull barrel free floating new for 740.00 out the door. its on the bottom right of their product page. Good price I thought , also got a reflex site. there was no ammo to be had there and it was a huge show, only some 762x39 bulk .I could of spent mucho money, I had to leave after buying the rifle ;D

It turns out its a true 5.56 rifle ,did not know they made those as match rifles because of the chamber size. But Im happy.Im no match shooter anyway, if I can make a good hit at 200yds thats all I need.

Well how about that, it's BLACK!

Seriously, just read an article in Rifleman and if I was to get an EBR it would be 556 not 223.  What's the twist?

The recoil of the Beowulf is very subjective, I had the dubious pleasure of getting one of the first from RRA a few years ago while I was working as an instructor. The first box of ammo went pretty quick that day for the three of us shooting it. But I will admit the next day I requested the gunsmith order and install the muzzle brake before I had any intention of using it on a regular basis. One of the other instructors replied he liked it better without the brake. Big difference in the "noise".
