Tell you what - I'll bet if I shot you in the right shouder with a .50DE then the left with a .45 ACP you wouldn't be able to tell the difference between the two.
And, believe it or not, a heavier, faster bullet doesn't necessarily mean more tissue damage or bigger wound. Over-powered projectiles tend to go through soft tissue and overpenetrate the target. The most incapacitating wound is made when a round stops in the target delivering all it's energy by either mushrooming or fragmenting. Shooting cinder blocks is one thing. Shooting live targets is another.

Actually it's more the equivalent of a Hummer H2. The Hummer wants you to think it is like the Humvee with its utilitarian looks, but is actually a Chevy pickup underneath. It comes in a variety of colors and is usually owned by people who want to make a statement.
Taking a .50DE to battle is about as practical as taking a Hummer to war.
