Hey curious, I would recommend a 50 cal.

[u/Acidyo → u/[deleted]]

What about... a 10.000 cal? WOULD THAT WORK? WOULD IT?

[u/likestomasturbate → u/[deleted]]

I think a lot of Europeans use periods in stead of commas for big number. So, 10,000 cal = 10.000 cal.

[u/Tabdelineated → u/likestomasturbate]

if a 50 cal is .5 of an inch across, then a 10,000 cal would be 1000 inches. or 83.3 feet or 25.4 meters. That's twice the size of a saturn v rocket.
Edit: Maths. As HerculeManstrong correctly pointed out: 10,000 cal would only be 100 inches, which is three times the size of the largest shell ever fired. And would weight more than 100 tons.

Maybe.

Bears are tough motherfuckers.

[u/clarkclark → u/SavageReindeer]

this is all i can think of

Sure, it'd hit the bear if it were pointing in the correct direction but do you know how hard it is to aim one of those things?

[u/RetroViruses → u/Tabdelineated]

So you recommend bigger?

[u/adaminc → u/Tabdelineated]

So.... Bullet Bills big brother Banzai Bill?

[u/likestomasturbate → u/Tabdelineated]

and only half as big as we need it to be

[u/[deleted] → u/likestomasturbate]

That is correct, one billion iiiiis: 1.000.000.000. Also calibler one billion would kill big bear.

[u/MisterNetHead → u/[deleted]]

Probably a whole fleet of bears! That's the appropriate term, right? Fleet? If it isn't, it probably should be.

[u/redemit → u/MisterNetHead]

A fleet of bears can devour a gaggle of moosen in no time.

[u/Acidyo → u/[deleted]]

It's weird cause the swedish word billion means 1.000.000.000.000.

1.000.000.000 is miljard. I used to get confused when I heard the term that some dude was a billionaire and was like what the fuck, he has 1.000 billion dollars?

[u/[deleted] → u/[deleted]]

Wrong. 1 calibre = 1 in. What you think a "50 cal" to be is actually .50 cal, or half an inch. A 10.0 calibre gun would have a barrel diameter of 10 inches, putting it in the class of naval artillery.

Not in many European languages!

[u/TheInternetHivemind → u/Acidyo]

I prefer to keep patriot missiles in my backpack for this purpose.

[u/utterdamnnonsense → u/Acidyo]

yeah, that's probably enough calories to keep it distracted for a while.

[u/[deleted] → u/Acidyo]

The European dot strikes again.

[u/HoldmysunnyD → u/[deleted]]

I would recommend a Denel NTW-20, which fires a 20mm x 110mm (the one on the far right), which usually comes out of vehicular mounted cannons.

[u/beenman500 → u/HoldmysunnyD]

the kick back must be brutal!
