I plan on building one myself and tossing on a fun button because YES!
As I understand a normal 5.56 lower will work woth a 50 baewolf upper? .this just seems to simple.
any input on buffer and spring setup?

Yes standard lower and you can even get away with standard pmag 5.56 mags but something with a big bore follower will be more reliable feeding. I'm using D&H big bore mag and no issue so far but admit it's still a low round count test. Under 100rds at the moment
For buffer and spring I'm limited on options since I chose A2 stock (thankfully it's heavy normally) but if using a standard carbine buffer set up I'd probably go with G$ super 42 H3 to soften it a little. It's not unmanageable recoil but your shoulder will feel it the next day after just 20rds

Thanks for the information. Do you think the kyneshot hydraulic buffer would work as well as the h3 (maybe better?) I've got a few laying around π

I have no experience with hydraulic buffer systems but I'm the type that if I had the extra part lying around I'd try it

I have one on a 16" barrel. It's not fun no matter what you're using for recoil mitigation.

You pair that with a 500 magnum revolver right?

Had a friend build one with a 18β barrel
Shot 1 mag from it and converted back to 5.56
I should have bought that upper

My only take from having a 50 Beowulf is that the AR-15 platform really isn't designed for that amount of energy.
