a .50BMG is a massive round, capable of taking out humans at thousands of yards (it's lethal way past where you can compensate for wind and slight imperfections in the cartridge and barrel,) light armor at shorter ranges, anti-vehicle at short range, and also being used for anti-aircraft because it carries so much energy and can reach so far.

From the right are a .22, a 5.56 NATO (what the US army uses,) a 7.62x39 (used in the ak-47,) and all the way on the left is a .50BMG |
GOOD GOD !! That thing is HUGE!!!
After seeing a picture of that bullet (looks more like a damn missile to me!), that couldn't be what that guy got hit with..It doesn't look like the kind of bullet that would just bounce off some metal earmuffs to me!!
