fueld rocket, at launch, from a milie away, so it will melt on the pad, and you can get away with it.. A .50 bmg upper for the AR will suffice. 223 is well proven to have plenty of reach for realistic sniping (ie, 700 yds, with 1 in 8 rifling, 80 gr Berger VLD match bullets. So why bother to lug around more wt and bulk, or God Forbid, a silly bolt action?

I tend to agree, altho I'd choose a 300

win Mag BAR, restocked by McMillan, for ranges beyond 500 yds. I don't see enough use for a "sniping" or target type 223. A 300 tho, can do those things, and also be effective on big game at such ranges. One could need the rapidfire potential of the BAR, and its gas op and BOSS compensator are helpful with heavy recoil, as is the gun's 9 lb weight.

yeah, the powermad know no bounds

amazing

you made a post and responded to it under 2 different names, i guess that means your talking to yourself.

 

[andy]

I"m just heading what someone claimed

is the case, about visitors not liking to see lots of posts by unregistered know-nothings, iike yourself.

ANDY PANDA, PEOPLE ARE TRYING TO BE CIVIL HERE. AR'S DON'T DO WELL IN SUNLIGHT, SO WHY DON'T YOU PUT YOURS WHERE THE SUN DON'T SHINE?

 

[bucfan]

you mean to tell me that I'm suppost to "take out" an APC with an M-16?

Nick

 

[andy]

u aint taking out an APC with a .50 rifle

either. You can put scores of holes in such vehicles, with NO effect, and they will be hosing you down with belt feds, rockets, etc. U live in a dream world. You avoid APC'S, period, except perhaps for silenced, subsonic killing of the crews, as they sleep outside, at night.

For a guy who's never seen combat, you come up with some mighty fine tales.

You'll have a little more time to post here now - I see you just got bounced off of Beartoothbullets again. Lasted less than 2 days there.

One thing that YOU can not school me on is the mechanics on the military APC M113. With one shot from any kind of 50 in the right spot will kill the 113 dead in it's tracks.

Tard, most APC's are made from reinforced aluminum armor plate. they will stop quite a bit of small arms fire but trust me, a .50 BMG will zip through it like nobody's business.

I still can't beleive that tard would commment about the 113 knowing that he has no idea what one even looks like. I suppose that if you shot a 113 with a 50 right in the side and suppose that the bullet didn't change paths and come straight out the other side it would't affect the track in any way, but only the track, not the crew. Put one round of 50 in the left frount and it will take out the driver then go straight to the engine. The enging may not "die" right when it is hit but buy the time the rest of the crew gets the driver out of his seat it will be to late. Lets just hope that no talaban is on this post.

Actually, the fastest way to shut an M113 down is a frontal plate low hit on the left as you look at it. Your ideal target is the oil pan and transmission housing. It won't kill many if any of the people on board but it will make life miserable for those inside.

Heck, have you guys seen what happens with the Raufoss style .50 BMG ammo when it goes through barriers? Take a look at the photo below. This stuff doesn't act like standard AP where a single projectile goes into a vehicle. This stuff fragments and each fragment is also armor piercing. Also incendiary. If it is fired into a vehicle, it would make a mess out of anyone inside of it.

 

[Aslan]

Don't confuse Gunkid. Using facts is patently unfair to him.

Also, you're messing with his fantasy of blowing up the shuttle.

After all, I beleive all modern military rockets are solid fueled - less prep time to fire one, at least the US ones are.

Scuds are liquid fueled, being little more than V2's with a few upgrades. But where is he likely to encounter a scud? (he won't even leave Colorado)

So about the only liquid fueled rocket he could be thinking of is the shuttle.

More paranoid BS.

Of course the tard couldn't get within a mile of the shuttle, and if he can't handle the recoil of a .308 with flinching and missing, what would he do with a .50?


:devil:

 

[Garand]

As a young infanteer, I spent 2 1/2 years in a mechanized rifle company. These days in the test facility where I work we blow up things like that. Gunkid, you have absolutely no idea what will penetrate an M113 with or without an armour add on package.

 

[wheelgunner]

Man, once you have shot a fifty, there is no going back.

Some uninformed people at work think that the 50 does some magical damage.

So do I really need a fifty?

No.

All I "NEED" is Space, Shelter, Food, and Water.

Do I want/have a 50? YES, YES, YES...

GunKid has obviously never hrad of .50 caliner API ammunition.

i see too a dealer of .50 HE-i in french aerial-expo (le bourget/paris)
it s belgium ammo it seem and the photo it s real
shoot a solid fuel rocket with low caliber is always a fatal damage !!!
