Default RE: 50 BMG

would you hunt with one

A .50 BMG will just put a hole in about everything that you shoot. Just because it is a big round doesn't mean that it will vaporize whatever you shoot with it.

It is people like you that think that it will do so much damage to an animal that gives the BMG a bad rap.
i was thinking the same thing. that would be getting pretty expensive.

to the post saying the 50cal was made for taking out vehicles. you couldnt be more wrong.when i went to iraqi was the spotterfor my partner who wasa sniper and this was the gunheused.he can reach out and pick people off at ranges up to almost a mile with out a problem.

and for all you non hunters. who cares what you kill it with. i would much rather you shoot me with a 50 cal and get it over quick then shoot me a a 223 and it take a bit before im dead. you dont eat them anyways. unethical? i dont see it. it would be more ethical in the since it didt even feel a thing.
