1100 yrd flat .50 cal

[hueys66]

Here is a couple pics of a .50 cal projectile that skipped into our 1100yd steel target. It couldn't of hit any flatter. A direct hit won't even move any material, but this particular hit left an impression. Then the hunt was on for lost pill. I found the jacket close at the target, and then later on found the projectile 45yds to the right.

That's rely interesting! I wonder what made it do that? At 1000 yards a .50 cal round should still have plenty of power! (I would think)

He said he skipped it into the target, I think that's where the large majority of lost energy went.

You have to cut that piece out of the target and make a paper weight out of it.

If that plate wasn't so expensive that might be an option
