As one of the most powerful handgun cartridges in the world, 50 AE ammo has been famous for over 30 years. 50 Action Express is mostly used for steel target shooting but has found its way into the field as a medium to big game hunting round. It's also a top contender as a defensive sidearm in grizzly bear country. A 50 AE bullet usually weighs 300 grains and travels anywhere from 1,400 fps (feet per second) to 1,500 fps, depending on the load. While not as large as the .50 BMG rifle ammo, the bullet diameters are the same, so you know this round packs a serious punch and can take down plenty of targets at close range. Since it was popularize by the Desert Eagle pistol, .50 AE is also commonly referred to as Desert Eagle 50 ammo. However, since gaining popularity, other manufacturers have started offering both semi-automatic pistols and revolvers that are also chambered in 50 Action Express.
