I was watching a program about snipers in various conflicts and the narrator pointed out the 50 BMG fired from the Barrett would hit an 'insurgent' at one mile with "the force of a 9mm at point blank".
Now I'm a bit fuzzy on this, but how could a 750gr bullet hit anything with such little power? The slowest it could go would be terminal velocity for the projectile, so I'm guessing...300mph?
