I hope this makes it past the administrator. I am sure many of you have seen the video of a Canadian sniper team in Afghanistan shooting humans in the mountains with a .50 caliber sniper rifle. The victims were shown to be literally "blown" apart when they were shot by those big bullets. Is this really what would happen? I have seen photos of whitetail deer taken with the .50 cals, and there was still enough meat there to grill in the backyard. I am skeptical. Any thoughts??

The video you mention has nothing to do with snipers, Canadians, or Afghanistan. The entities in question are small varmints hit with a .22-250 AI filmed in Wyoming IIRC, and it is one of the many videos filmed by two guys for $ on a web site for varmint hunters, don't recall the exact name though.
