Were talking about Long range shooting specifically

2019-04-05 21:17:57 UTC  

@nutsnax everyone has their own preference.

2019-04-05 21:18:28 UTC  

I scrolled up to earlier in the conversation

2019-04-05 21:18:40 UTC  

Should have clarified

2019-04-05 21:24:17 UTC  

Further than 2,700

2019-04-06 02:47:14 UTC  

20mm anti material rifle ftw

@Duke of Mecklenburg they might suck for long range shooting, but that doesn't make those wildcats a superior all around cartridges. Namely because there aren't similar loads like the Mk. 211 Raufoss or the SLAP. You could compare Lapua .338 against those as they are all meant for exactly the same purpose, unlike a multipurpose cartridge like the BMG.
What gave you the idea militaries choose the best option? It's always the cheapest option, very few militaries are in the spot where they have unlimited budget.

.416 isnt a wildcat

2019-04-06 03:05:47 UTC  

I guess I'm a retard for seeing that you can't compare an all around cartridge against a sniper cartridge. Comparing .50 BMG and .338 Lapua is equally retarded as comparing 9x19 to 9x39.

2019-04-06 03:05:52 UTC  

.416 can do anything a 50 could

2019-04-06 03:05:55 UTC  

Nearly

2019-04-06 03:06:00 UTC  

sure it can

2019-04-06 03:06:02 UTC  

Including better penetration

2019-04-06 03:06:07 UTC  

but it's not superiour

2019-04-06 03:06:25 UTC  

But it is

2019-04-06 03:06:33 UTC  

As a long range cartridge

2019-04-06 03:06:41 UTC  

Which was the whole point

2019-04-06 03:06:44 UTC  

they are not comparable, it's not usable in a machine gun

2019-04-06 03:06:55 UTC  

That was never an argument

2019-04-06 03:06:57 UTC  

At all

2019-04-06 03:07:03 UTC  

no, the whole point for the original argument was that a katana was better than toilet paper

2019-04-06 03:07:22 UTC  

well that's what started this, a clear comparison with two unrelated things

2019-04-06 03:07:23 UTC  

That had nothing to do with anything I ever talked about

2019-04-06 03:07:33 UTC  

then maybe you shouldn't have replied to me

2019-04-06 03:07:49 UTC  

I'm still right tho

2019-04-06 03:08:08 UTC  

.416 Barrett MG...when?

2019-04-06 03:08:12 UTC  

well, you would be as you don't have any real life experience on the matter

2019-04-06 03:08:29 UTC  

What matter?

2019-04-06 03:08:57 UTC  

anything beyond an internet argument about global military

2019-04-06 03:09:12 UTC  

Never argued about military stuff

2019-04-06 03:09:13 UTC  

where you insist you know better than the said militaries

2019-04-06 03:09:22 UTC  

.50 BMG is strictly military

2019-04-06 03:09:34 UTC  

When did you buy your last Mk. 211?

2019-04-06 03:09:59 UTC  

We still talking armor penetration

2019-04-06 03:10:10 UTC  

Or we on long range anger

2019-04-06 03:10:36 UTC  

You fucking moron

The .50 is common with Longrange shooters
