Sorry, I mean it cant cycle
In an M2 or M82?
Well taking, shtf (availability), accuracy, and effective range.
Availability is were the 50 shines
M2 HB only
Rats
You could prolly slap it in an M99 bolt action
50 wins in that. For most non armored targets you could get away with 300 mag
Serbu ar upper could work
Well theres a reason the .338 lapua and .300 win mag are pretty much all Military snipers use...The .50 is a niche cartridge for Snipers
Pretty much only for anti-material
They weigh 30 fucking pounds
Pretty much
Even the McMillan is like...20something
The Military is adopting a replacement for the 300 soon
The .300 PRC
Mentioned that above
Civ rifles are sitting at 3k right now
It's more like a 300 wby in performance(150ft/s faster) and is designed more properly for the heavier rounds
SLAP needs a specific type of a barrel
the sabot fucks up match barrels
The military is stupid with the 300 win mag round selections tho, btw
30 nosler
Is another choice
They dont use the superior civilian rounds
Like they using 180 grain in 2019🤣...like bitch...have you seen the 212s ballistic coefficiency
The military is behind the civilians in this regard
And has been since the 40s
Thats why the SOF guys just adopted 6.5 cm
We beta test for them
They adopted the 6.5????????
Last summer
The creedmoor?
SPC
Rebarreling some SR25s for it
Oh
it took them nearly 20 years to make that choice

Shitty article.
I was also wrong it looks like full change out from 7.62
