That video is almost 10 years old btw.
"That's the last one of them we're doing"......
why would a .50 cal not penetrate that steel at 100 yds? It obviously wasn't 1000.
thanksAll it takes is an odd angle or a plate that isn’t secure.
I’ve shot at plates collected along the side of old railroad tracks that were just pushed in to loose dirt. APIs barely left a mark because the plate just fell over when hit.
AOA on its own can have a huge effect though. Or the round could have penetrated the target before ricocheting off a rock. If it was an AP round the tungsten core won’t deform at all. Standard ball will deform but doesn’t usually break up. A target angled down the way many are to divert splatter could bounce an M33 ball round.

Not sure if anyone has seen this or if it's real

I was gonna say I've seen that video several years back it was very close, too close for 50 Bigarsed Machine Gun.That was no 1000 yards. More like 100.
