Mythbusters tested by putting a block of ballistics gel underwater and shooting through various depths to see how much water would stop the bullet.

50 Caliber Sniper
- lets see him try it on a human!
funny thing is they only found the jacket of the projectile. they mentioned they used an armor piercing projectile in the clip... AP usually means a STEEL core. so where did that bad boy go? anyone care to comment on that? i say if they tried that with a person in the pool they would b looking at a homicide case myself.

and check out that 50 bmg rifle

The .50 BMG is an extremely POTENT round. To say that it achieves 3000/fps is a relatively mild assertion. It will certainly penetrate most forms of armor and it is extremely accurate and "effective" out to 1000 yards.

They were using quick expansion bullet? That would mushroom and shatter in the water. Just out of curiosity, what if they were using Full Metal Jacket Bullets?

- yes it is a full metal jacketed steel co...
look at the video... they compare the 30-06 and the 50 BMG and they r both FMJ.

The .50 Cal IS a Full metal Jacketed round. Look more closely at the video.
Cheers!

That was the M81A1 sniper from Barrett corp. firing the 0.50 cal BMG (Browning Machine Gun) round. The M95 rifle is almost identical except for a shorter and bulkier stock due to it's bullpup design.

Wrong, that's the ai artic warfare .50. Just look closely, it's a bolt operating weapon they use, the barrett is a semi-automatic...

- True
True, that is not a Barret M81A1, nor is there any such rifle. The M82 however, is a real rifle, yet bears no resembalence to the one that Jamie is using.

- Also
Also, it doesn't look like an AW50 at all, but, with the unique muzzle break, I'd say it is an Armalite AR50 rifle.

armalite does not manufacture a semiautomatic receiver in the .50 BMG caliber, although the muzzle brake appears to be from an armalite design.
