If you don't handload, I would pick something with plentiful ammo availability and good price. I know, that's a tall order these days. Sad.

.50 Beowulf is king. Do your own research.

The only correct answer is .458 socom. 

This is the correct answer.

Why not throw 300 hammr into the mix ? It seems to be a pretty interesting round....

Finding a .458 socom barrel at a decent price is proving a hard thing at the moment. 

BROWNELLS AR-15 458 SOCOM BARREL | Brownells

barrell comes with the bolt & muzzle brake cheapest I've seen and made in the U.S by faxon for brownell  I believe. Just make sure you get the .875" OD gas block.

I have been fascinated with the .458 Socom, who doesn’t like shooting a thumper. And I bet it is really fun to put some rounds down range. As far as setup I would try to keep it as lightweight as possible with prob 16” barrel and low zoom scout type scope or similar. As far as color it depends, I prefer flat colors and some type of camo pattern if you plan to hunt a lot with it. Whereas if you just want to take it to the range a few times could leave black or a theme paint would be cool.

I recently put together a 350 Legend, it's been a ton of fun so far. It's especially interesting to me since I already load 357 and 9mm, lots of options to play with.

I mean @Thurstyhas a .50 Beowulf build up on the listings, just sayin.
