To my knowledge .50BWF is more suited for close work due to weight and ballistics or something. It loses energy faster (I think?) and gets blown around by wind and other factors that handicap its accuracy.
If you’re looking for an AR-15/M-4 pattern riffle with a caliber that’s larger/uniquer than 5.56 for the DMR mission, I’d recommend 6.5 Grendel. It’s not as optimized as 6.5 creedmoor, but it brings the benefits of a AR15/M4 pattern, with a standard magazine capacity of 26 and similar weights and setups. I don’t know if there are any militaries that use it, but you could justify it and make up your own AR15/M4 pattern platform. 6.5 Grendel usually just needs a specific magazine and upper (and barrel), but you can use the same lower as you might use for a 5.56 platform.
(I’ve had problems with feeding, but I think that was because of the gas system.)
There might be some 7.62 options too, but idk much. Definitely do some more research and find what works best.
Or, alternatively, just use 50 BWF. This is a fictional thing, just have fun with it if you want.

Fr????
I thought 50 BWF was just 50 BMG for ARs
And i thought it wasn't powerful enough for it to be needing 50 BWF resistant optics
Eh
(I don't know much, Im just a dude who is really into American gun laws with minimal experience.)
I would not recommend .50 Beowulf as a DMR platform, allegedly it has very little range compared to other platforms, and doesn't even have the proper reach. Some numbers I saw but didn't verify said .50 Beowulf's max effective range is ~200 yards, while DMR engagements require ~500-800 yards. (also I expect you're planning to put a longer barrel and proper optic on that)
Aside from the .50 Beowulf, the others depend on your budget and logistics.
Ah yes.
M16 machine gun

@ShinyGemsBro
And uhh
I have a MP5SD3 paired with a M203 GL in my Aircrafts folder
@SPsidearm oh okk
@SuperSuperTheSylph
Seperate builds
are you gonna make a mix of them or build them just like that?
