I was at the range the other day, a couple boys had a Barrett or knockoff thereof. Not a lot of fun for everyone else on a crowded line, but lots of giggles for the users... especially when they looked around and waited till others were in the middle of a string before lighting off theri muzzle-brake speshul.
They weren't hunters.
I hope that was not a "100 yard" range or similar. Better have been a 1000 yard range.
We have never been to a public range with this rifle other than for competition only (and that is 1000 yards). We use it here on the ranch on our own range. Using a .50 in a crowd like that could get pretty annoying....muzzle blast will dig a damned fox hole for you if you areon bare ground.
Still, killing watermelons with it at 1000 yards is fun.
best of luck
