Anybody know where I can find ballistic charts for this round? I'm interested what load snipers are using and the velocity and energy levels at long range.

huntereddie... I don't believe it is used by any group of snipers anywhere... they are using rounds that are far far more accurate the the .50... check out snipercentral.com...lots of other sites out there.. look for .416 barret, 338 lapua and the 407 cheytac.... these and lots of others are what you see on the line today for super long range.. even the .300 winmag is more than enough..

Frank, I think you're mistaken Bud. Have you seen the video of the Canadian Snipers in Afghanistan? If so I don't believe anything less than a 50 will do that amount of damage. If you didn't see it tell me how to paste it on here.

some may still use it but the u.s. troops have switched to some of the one's frank listed. one that really stands out is a 409 or something close to that. saw it on weaponology
