Is it unrealistic to bend a wedge 6° in specific a 56° to a 50° the reasson i ask is the callaway pm grind wedges are offered in a 56° as the lowest loft. I was looking to add a third wedge to my bag and wanted to stay consistant with the pm grind wedges.
 
It's a forged club so theoretically possible but
Don't forget you'll change the bounce by 6° as well, which you may or may not want.
A 50° with 7° bounce is a reasonable setup but bending a club that far may be more than recommended and some Pros may not want to try.
And it'll be at your risk should it snap or warp
Worth asking the question though...

If you look at the irons sets, instead of wedges, most of those do a 50 deg AW wedge

You forgot to add what it will do to the offset as well Imurg; frankly I think it will look hideous at address. The most I think Mizuno are prepared to move them is 4 degrees.
