and that shock comment...the 50 cal BMG round never even touches a person. the air compressed around the tip rips the person in half before the bullet ever touches, so yeah, that might happen too`
FUK i wish i had my really old book on African big game hunting. BUt i dont so u win this round, for now.
OH ya at what distance does your litle air "ripping people in half" trick happen?

my friend is in the marines, not me. I took his word for it because it was attached to a story about how its illegal to use .50 cal BMGs on humans as it was banned by UN but* they said you could lay down "cover fire" with them hehe...ahh good times
im just saying that the calibre of bullet is a mere measurement of the bullet not the charge. now if the two are linked, that would be something, but there isnt really an argument on how what is being measured when you say .45 cal. its the bullet, not the powder.
and I really dont care after all is said and done, i just wanna see what guns people have, cuz i think theyre cool..
how tight is this. my uncle has a steyr aug! just like CS its awesome

That's correct...it's all about power. You can use the same shell/bullet, change the power and the characteristics change quite a bit.
Ex: We use 150 grain on smaller big game (deer, antelope), while increasing the power to 180 grain for elk. Meanwhile if you use 180-200 grain power on an antelope you'd leave an exit wound you could throw a cat through.
(results may vary -- bullet type: soft point boat tail)

Once made a potato gun... used it for launching potatoes at very high velocities Other than that, I don't have a reason to own a gun. There are no bears or evil demons or innocent animals or bystanders I want to slaughter, but more power to those who do
