So, I know Mike put up a video of a 50 cal mod for the pinokio and I was just wondering... Is it possible to do a Rotor 50 Cal mod?

Before you do anything see if it actually doesn't work with .50 first.

the rotor is a little ifficult since you would have to mod the arm, the paddles, and put an insert in. In my z2 I just popped a insert in the feedneck and it feeds ok...got a second raceway to mod so it'll hopefully feed a bit better

You might be able to do a similar thing, just jamming the adapter up in there, as long as it's a smooth transition. I guess for the feeding itself you'd have to just try it and see how they feed with the stock Rotor parts. If I had to guess I'd say it's going to jam more than the Pinokio without modifying it first.

Yeah.... hm.... I wonder if there is a way to mod the paddles and arm though....

I tried... It feeds, just not consistently...

I might just end up getting the Pinokio then....

You won't be able to feed .50 consistently with a Rotor (I've tried). Short of actually making .50 center rotor arms, you'd be better off just getting a loader capable of .50.

The rapid would be my guess as to the best loader for 50 cal?

I don't see any haters in here, just realists. I've got a seed kit in my Rotor, and even with that auto unjam feature built into the board, it can't feed .50 for shit.
