Lol. How much does that cost a round?

But yeah definitely. It takes all types and not all park visitors are angels either, even though we might think we are. Especially those shooting .50 cal over your head! ?

LOL, well that’s why we make sure to be far away from even other shooters.
Costs vary a lot. A high end commercial round is $7 each. Basic commercial rounds are about $3.50 to $4. Reloads from various online sources are about $2.50. And my own hand reloads using military surplus components are just under a dollar. In that case I’m reusing the brass. This also lets me make exploding top rounds which a blast. So to speak.

Looks like a fast way to go broke, but I'd still love to try it just for funnsies. Sure moves a lot of metal downrange.

I suppose avoiding shooting over the heads of other shooters is also a good self preservation technique. It's the unarmed hikers that you don't have to worry about so much.

Nice center of mass shot btw, but I think that rock was already dead before it got hit by your .50 cal.

The light explosive bullets are 867 grains propelled by 200-210 grains of powder. In comparison, the common AR-15 rounds are 45-65 grain projectiles with about 28 grains of powder. Yeeeee-haw.
