Handle getting hit by it? Hell No! Handle firing it, 1 time!! The recoil and recovery is such that you are only going to get 1 good shot off from a cartrigde of that power and then you will need to think, and re aim. Shot placement I think with a less powerful cartridge is more important and would be better.

If i rememeber it moves at about the same speed as a nato round 5.56/2.23 but at about 5 times the power.

Yea I could shoot it , but just one time and if i miss, whatever is coming after me will be chasing me cause i an running my butt of really fast........well as fast as these old legs will carry be!!

PS: is delta and rangers using these? While I know the military has them, it was my impression it was mostly a BIG game cartridge for knocking down big animals then finishing with a good shot placement.

If you are braced correctly in the prone position..yes.

It's the idiots who try and shoulder it who look like an ***..a weapon with that much muzzle velocity..please.

I wont comment on the squids..heh!!

This cartridge is a Big Game hunter only..recoil is too severe to track and engage targets.

Not to mention the good old .308(7.62X51mm)..still soldiering on.


Yes the lovely 308 ball and chain.

Now let us not for get the 303 Britttish Enfield nice little gun as well.

Or the 270 Winchester with silver tips.

I must admit the 223 is a must have with the 30 round clip.

But
50 cal sniper is a sure win win for one shot one kill or the 337 ERMA SR100.

what kills me is in the hand gun everyone seems to like the sigs hmm Not me Ill take the Baretta.

OH well.

But inside 21 feet close combat situation give me a good knife.:p

I own a barrett model 99 50 cal, that i haven't shot in close to a yr. At no time as it ever entered my mond to shot that thing standing with it at my shoulder. I understand that many of my family thin i am nuts to even own it, but i'd simply prove the true it is "stood" there and fired it!!

Sigs are nice..I'm a Glock man myself..Model 22 (.40S&W).

The .223 round is fine for an assault weapon or varmint gun.

I haven't shot a Barrett type weapon..plinked many a .50 round with the Ma Deuce though..scary what a .50 round can do to man and material.

As for all time greats .30-06 takes it for me...plenty of stopping power and range.

I shoot quite a bit..mainly pistols..but dabble in everything..I like to keep sharp.

Practice and training make a good shooter..better.

Military doctrine dies hard.

My ccweapons are either a XD9SC with a built in lazer, or a
XD40 compact frame. When i need a bigger bang, i use a kimmer 1911 .

Other then the Barrett 99, i also have a Robinson Arms XCR ( XCR Home Page ) that has the ability to change cabilers. It is in the ar type weapon, but way beyond it. I have 3 barrels for it the 5.56, 6.8, and 7.62x39mm. I just got the 7.62 and haven't been able to shoot it yet.

I have heard that Barrett has a conversion for the 99 that chambers it for 4.16 rounds, I am thinking i need that too!

While I don't get to shoot has much as i'd like now, i still do try to get out a few times a month.

And right now is the time if add to your ammo cache, it can never be too big, and only God knows whats ahead for our country.

I am a glock man to!! I got me a custom g36 with xs big dot sights heres a pic. the work was done by boom boom tactical in columbus oh. As you can see I had the grip reduced and front ****ing serrations added along with the slide and barrel refinished he also de-burred and flared the ejection port and rounded all the corners. On the inside its all slicked up and I have a ranger 5.5lb trigger and a lighting titanium striker. The gun fires great and fits into my had perfectly now. http://www.expeditersonline.com/forum/images/styles/expediter/attach/jpg.gif
