>> [_] Anon 1377149 i like how a guns using the same bullet do different damage

>> [_] Anon 1377187 >># Do you even know how bullet ballistics work? The gun itself does nothing to the bullet except point it in the right direction and detonate the primer at the back of the shell. Different guns can't make the same bullet travel any faster or hit harder than they already can given their velocity and mass of the projectile, the only thing that a gun can do is make the bullet travel at a worse trajectory than another gun because of over all degradation or just shitty design. The gun itself will never do anything to affect the performance of the bullet in "speed and power", only the size of the projectile, the way the projectile is designed, the size of the casing, and the kind of powder used will affect the performance in the way you described.

>> [_] Anon 1377212 >if it were realistic >guy running around dual wielding smgs HAHAHAHAHAHAHA Also: >># You do not seem to understand that barrel length can change the velocity of a round and its terminal effectiveness drastically as a result. In the case of the .50bmg, it's moot, since a few hundred FPS more or less is not going to impact something that is already going several thousand feet per second. But: With something like m855 5.56x45, a few hundred fps can make all the difference in the world and drastically change a mid-range caliber into nothing more than a .22 magnum wound channel.

>> [_] Anon 1377240 >># I can agree with what you say there. To a point a longer barrel will increase the velocity (the expanding gas having more time to push the bullet). However your argument with the 5.56 Vs the .22 magnum is a little skewed. The 5.56 travels anywhere from 1000 to 2000 FPS faster than the .22 magnum. A better example would be the .308 vs the 30-06 which there is only about a 100 to 200 FPS difference. I don't know maybe not, but i do know that the armor piercing steel core of a .50 BMG cannot go through a bowling pin. Found that out first hand. http://www.snipershide.com/forum/ubbthre ads.php?ubb=showflat&Main=144870&Number=1 586829#Post 1586829
>> [_] Anon 1377251 >># You're right to an extent. Guns play a major factor in internal ballistics, some external ballistics and close to noting in terminal ballistics. The ballistics coefficient (BC) of the bullet plays more on how "strong" (a term i use lightly) a bullet is. If you have a bullet with a high BC you will have a longer range then if you had the same weight bullet going the same speed with a lower BC. I have always been told that the closer the BC is to 1 the better (my 200 grain .308 Sierra Match Kings have a BC of 0.573). However Hornady AMAX bullets for the 50 BMG have a BC of 1.05. So in short i can say that the higher the BC the better even if it is over 1. Now you know a little more about the world.
