Probably around 100yds. It took almost 2 full seconds between firing and hitting him and you figure the bullet is originally traveling about 800 fps, but dramatically slows down after it ricocheted.

That guy got lucky.

That a piece of sh#t 50 cal if the bullet is only traveling 800ft./sec@ 100yards. The 50 cal handgun (Desert Eagle) could probably do that @100yards. Should be around 2500ft/sec @100yards.

Just the raw power, accuracy, and damage that gun can do at LONG range is amazing. Yall see the shockwave when he shot?
