I have a few of these and don't really want to toss them if they can be used. 50 BMG blanks.

Those are 50 BMG "blanks"
Not really reloadable.

Aren’t there a few oddball calibers that are formed from 50bmg though?

That's what I was thinking. An old timer, a few years back, said he could anneal & then size them to get functional cases. Don't know if that is true or not.

You could cut them down for shot measures solder on a handle, or cut off crimp solder on appropriate bottle neck case and make pre-measured blk pdr charge holders for muzzle loaders.

pretty much brass like that is scrap. I put mine (blanks) in the recycling - and at least get paid for the scrap brass. 50 BMG brass is readily available and I would not think it was worth the work to try and "fix" those for reuse as 50 bmg cases. Not sure what other cases are made from 50 BMG, but I am pretty sure they would rather use "not blank cases" for forming those. Cool if you can come up with a good use like scoops...
