Were talking about Long range shooting specifically

@nutsnax everyone has their own preference.

I scrolled up to earlier in the conversation

Should have clarified

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

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.

.416 can do anything a 50 could

Nearly

sure it can

Including better penetration

but it's not superiour

But it is

As a long range cartridge

Which was the whole point

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

That was never an argument

At all

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

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

That had nothing to do with anything I ever talked about

then maybe you shouldn't have replied to me

I'm still right tho

.416 Barrett MG...when?

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

What matter?

anything beyond an internet argument about global military

Never argued about military stuff

where you insist you know better than the said militaries

.50 BMG is strictly military

When did you buy your last Mk. 211?

We still talking armor penetration

Or we on long range anger

You fucking moron

The .50 is common with Longrange shooters
