QTTDDTOT

it's used because it's a bigger bullet by border patrol and works well for immobilizing a car apparently. sage because no one needs to see such a low effort thread

Its a good meme.

What do you mean by good? Its overkill in most cases, but sometimes you need mass to penetrate concealment/foliage and still retain a straight enough path to hit something. I like to use slugs for that reason.

Yeah sorry I'll delete it and put in in there.

>>517704

>nobody can post questions I don't like on my dead board!

Ever heard the expression "beggars can't be choosers"?

I wouldn't immediately call it low-effort.

There's a lot of room for good discussion here. Like, if you want a big-bore meme round, consider the .45 VRAP. It's like the 45 Raptor but shorter. Both are loaded to .460 S&W specifications, but less so if you grind the former-.308 case down to fit through your AR-15's magazine/well.

typos bother me, however.

>Is 50. Beuwolf good

OP, it's .50, not 50. beowolf. Otherwise you're asking two questions.

first:

>is 50

And the second, in another sentence later in your post:

>Beowolf good, or a meme?

>>517784

calling it that was a little harsh of me, it's just I don't care for the meme round term, though I'm sure .50 AE would fit the bill, it was pushed hard by Hollywood's Charlie's angels and I'm sure some other movies pushed it as well.

This is powerful autism.

This constant insistence on using some fucking general thread on a board THIS slow is ridiculous. Oh no, if someone makes another thread we might lose some shitty roleplaying thread from july.

>>517811

Gun Violence Awareness Day is only four threads from lost … opened early June.

Hasn't been posted to since the fourth of August, so it took two months to drift to the bottom.

>>517811

sounds like you need to go back to cuckchan.

It's a meme round.

>hurr, it's .50 cal, and imma dumb fuck who doesn't know the difference, so that must mean it's exactly like .50BMG

>i can't wait to punch through a tank with my $300 mallninja special AR

Although I've heard it's a good 'fuck you porky' feral hog cartridge.

Try shooting through a bush with .223.

Then try it with something of the same energy value (ftlb) but lower speed/higher mass.

Answer: The slower cartridge actually moves better through bush/leafs. Higher speed/low mass one yaws immediately, lower speed/higher mass just keeps plugging along in a straight line. Same energy though!

The math: Momentum is mass times speed. Kinetic energy is mass times velocity squared over two. So for kinetic energy, speed is exponentially more important, whereas for momentum its equivalent value to mass. And since momentum is whats CONSERVED in a physics situation, if you can pick between mass and velocity… the mass is comparatively more important.

It's good for skinwalkers.

Is it blessed by a Priest with Holy Water?

>>517911

No, it's powered by the rage of dead VAIKANGZ.

>>517914

That only gets you so far.

It's good for getting 15 round 5.56 magazines into Canada.

>>517934

Only reason I'm looking into a STANAG loading rifle, maybe a Type 97.

>.50 cal, and imma dumb fuck who doesn't know the difference, so that must mean it's exactly like .50BMG

No one who owns one has ever said that.

>>517979

Vz58 in 223 with the converter.

What stops canucks from coming into the US and just buying like 30 PMags from walmart in northern idaho or something?

It's not like we even card for those things….

>>518009

They don't even need to do that. Rivets are made of aluminum, just saying.

>>517830

Sounds like you need to get that cock out of your mouth.

>>517699

The price on the ammunition is cheap. About the same as .30-06 whereas you'll be paying more for the .45 AR rounds. .458 SOCOM is about $50 a box of 20 while .50 Beowulf is about $28.

>>518009

Respect for the law.

>>518108

>respecting some meaningless and mindless bullshit that does nothing productive whatsoever

I could make some joke about "I bet you like various ethnic minority too" but that's a bit harsh on most of them compared to your gun laws…..

>>518110

You making fun of my black boyfriend facsist?

>>518009

3 year minimum prison sentence if caught.

I hate the fucking law too, but jail time is not something I want

Its pretty solid and a alternative to .458 socom
