T he British long range snipers adopted the .338 calibre some while ago, the yanks have also been usiing a .50 based on the .50 Browning M.G. round.
They make one hell of a mess of terrorists, even if they try to hide behind a wall, any thing up to a mile away.
Now thats one I'd like to have a go with, even with a muzzle brake, it must have a eck of a recoil.
That calibre holds a record at 1000 yards grouping 5 shots in under 3 inches, using hand loaded ammo.
