Might as well throw mono if you're going to use 50# braid. With 50# braid the diameter is about the same as mono, so you don't get much improved distance, and you don't get the resistance to abrasion that you get with mono or a hybrid mono. Fifty pound braid gives you the worst of both worlds.
I like thirty pound braid when distance is needed and a hybrid mono when toughness is an issue.
