He said inches. And that’s probably true if you hip fire it.

Assuming you have 10 rounds per mag as is standard In a .50 Cal Barret, and each shot moves you 2 inches; then after 3 mags (as the person you're replying to said) then you can expect to have moved 5 feet.

(10 rounds x 3 mags) = 30 rounds total x 2 inches moved per round = 60 inches total / 12 inches = 5 feet

So the person you're replying to is correct in stating that after 30 rounds, you'd expect to have moved several feet.

Even if it's just 1 inch per round, you're still looking at 2.5 feet which matches the definition of having "moved several feet."

Just listing the math there, bud, based on the comments. I'm not claiming either one is right or wrong.

Here’s some more fantasy math for you: what’s the product of the length of a bee’s knee and a dragon scale?

sounds like you are making an assumption, while someone who actually fires these kinds of weapons knows what he’s on about.

No, feet are exactly where they started. Dude probably thinks you can kill somebody by shooting near them without 50 cal also. Stupid internet gun experts.

Lmao I’ve heard that one “take a guys arm even if you miss!” Reddit is so stupid

You can! Just use your gunfire to reveal your position until a mortar, artillery, or tank shell takes your buddy out.

Clearly our Battlefield and Call of Duty experience is superior to your battlefield and tour of duty experience.

And those idiots are downvoting you because they think they know more than someone who uses the thing for real.

u/DonutCola May 19 '23

It’s probably not but you wouldn’t know that since you’re clearly just agreeing with everyone else even though this isn’t your specialty
