Velocity of .50 BMG (Browining Machine Gun, 660 gr to 720 gr bullet weights ) projectile within 20 feet of the muzzle will between 2750 and 2850 feet per second, depending upon the cartride.
It depends on the weight and shape of the bullet, as well as the amount of powder used, but a good average would be from 2800 feet per second to a little over 3000 feet per second when shot from a rifle. There have been reports of greater speeds (in the 4000 to 5000 fps range) perhaps with sabot rounds.
A .50 caliber bullet can travel up to 5 miles when fired from a rifle at a high angle. However, the effective range for accurately hitting a target is usually around 1-1.5 miles due to factors such as air resistance, bullet drop, and accuracy limitations.
A .50 caliber bullet is measured by its diameter, which is half an inch (or approximately 12.7 millimeters). Measurement can be done using specialized calipers or micrometers. The caliber of a bullet refers to the diameter of the projectile it can fire.
It depends. A box of 10 .50 BMG cartridges are something like $25 or $30. .50 AE is much cheaper. There are also other types of 50 caliber ammo and bullets.
a s.w.50 caliber or ( special weapons ) also known as the snipers weapon and is about 5.45" in length, either it has a red, black, silver or blue tip That really didn't answer the question. Here is what you need to consider when trying to answer this question. #1 What is the weight of the bullet? If you're talking about a 750 grain .50 BMG, then it would not travel very far. Is this a Beowulf .50 cal or a Browning Machine Gun .50 cal? You can get exterior ballistics software on-line to calculate exactly what your looking for.
A typical .50 caliber round, such as the .50 BMG (Browning Machine Gun) cartridge, has an approximate mass of around 45-52 grams, depending on the specific type and composition of the bullet and casing.
It depends on the bullet and its kinetic energy, 50 caliber certainly can.
what type bullet in 50 cal
Any bullet that has a diameter of one half inch is a .50 caliber bullet. There are different .50 caliber bullets- my Hawken muzzle loading rifle shoots a .50 caliber lead bullet, but different from the .50 Browning Machine Gun (that is also used in the .50 Barret sniper rifle)

They are most certainly measured differently. The "50" in 50 caliber is measuring in inches and should actually be referred in writing as ".50 Caliber." The "5.56" is in millimeters (mm) and should be written as "5.56mm".To compare the two:.50 Caliber = 1/2 inch = 12.7mm5.56mm = ~ .2189 inchSo the .50 caliber bullet is roughly 2.28 times wider than the 5.56mm caliber bullet.
A .50 caliber bullet can travel up to 5 miles when fired from a rifle at a high angle. However, the effective range for accurately hitting a target is usually around 1-1.5 miles due to factors such as air resistance, bullet drop, and accuracy limitations.
If you shot a 50 caliber bullet at a 7.62mm bullet and they hit dead on, you prbly wouldn't even know the 7.62mm bullet exsisted because the 50 caliber bullet would sh!t f*ck the 7.62mm bullet , short answer- 50 cal. Look up a ammo size comparison chart
The highest caliber bullet commonly used is a .50 cal. However, there are bullet that are larger in caliber. the 700 Nitro express comes to mind.
Size and relative power. A .40 caliber bullet is .40 of an inch and the entire cartridge is 28.8 millimeters long. A .50 caliber (handgun) bullet is .50 of an inch and the entire cartridge is 40.99 millimeters long. The .50 caliber has more powder, more velocity, and more muzzle energy.
A .50 caliber bullet is measured by its diameter, which is half an inch (or approximately 12.7 millimeters). Measurement can be done using specialized calipers or micrometers. The caliber of a bullet refers to the diameter of the projectile it can fire.
Caliber is in reference to the diameter of the bullet. A .40 (which is what I have) is .40 inches in diameter. A .50 caliber is .50 inches in diameter (half an inch). So a caliber is the inches in diameter. Not including the 9mm which I cannot stand
