    Smile Wanna see something funny?

    Check out the .17 BMF wildcat cartridge at the bottom of the page at the link below.

    A Browning .50 cal case with a .17 bullet. I'm guessing 10,000 fps.

    That sounds like a bomb to me. Yeah - looked at it, certainly a joke. Has four shoulders?

    I'm afraid the projectile would reach terminal velocity unless it's made out of unobtanium

    When I was at a hunter safety course some 40 years ago a guy on the range and a huge bench rest rifle that fired something like that but more likely a 22 or 6mm projo in some magnum case (looked like a hypodermic to me) He fired at a far off gong. Had time time to fire, set his ear protection down and wait for the ping down range. there was a slight vapor trail visible when he shot it.
