I'm pretty sure I saw a human arm fly off on one of those.

I be seeing most of you boys come from Dogpatch.I bet some of yous "sequel like a pig" when you make love with your BUTTies.

I concede. Went and looked up the link you referred. Saw the same scenes. That effectively proves this video a hoax. Thanks for setting me straight.

I am not saying they are human targets. Only that there is sufficient evidence to suggest that what is seen IS consistent with what one should expect to see if they were human targets. Furthermore, it seems that some the targets, as presented in this video, are much larger than a little "rock chuck". That's all.

You are correct on the definition of AP. That was my misnomer. There is a 50 cal round, however, which IS spiked with HE. The charge is composition A. "Muzzle energy" is an esoteric description of "kinetic energy", as measured at the muzzle. I am not confused as to its definition. The ballistic coefficient of a 750 grain 50 cal spitzer is ~ 1.01. Knowing that, retained energy @ 1000 yrds is straightforward. That figure is > 6000ft lbs. That is > 6 times the "muzzle energy" of a 5.56 round.

Acoustic Saloon - AP rounds don't contain HE and don't blow up. They use a hardened metal jacket - some have a hard dense metal core to achieve penetration on armour. API rds penetrate thin armour and contain a core that blows and burns after penetration of eg. fuel tanks. Don't confuse muzzle energy, kinetic energy, or watermelons with terminal ballistics on human beings. BTW, they are gophers (rock chucks) not people being shot on this video pirated from Rocky Mt. Varmit hunters website.

the newtons law is right. but u wrong... u know why cuz the 50 cal is havey and the weigh stops most of the power of the gun.. and it got stands. if u wanna talk about send me a message
