How Many Brake Discs Can A .50 Cal Sniper Rifle Shoot Through?

It’s time to answer one of those questions no one asked, as we watch a man shoot at a bunch of old brake discs with guns of differing sizes.

The video takes around three minutes to get to the point (you may want to skip to around the 2min 50sec mark to avoid the waffling, adverts and singing), and what we learn is this: if you want to shoot through a few brake discs, you’re going to need something massive. Like a Barrett M82 sniper rifle using a .50 calibre round.

We’re not certain what use that information is, nor why Matt from DemolitionRanch keeps referring to what he’s shooting as ‘callipers’, but regardless, this sure is fun to watch.
