Thats a barret .50 BMG (Big Motherf'n Gun).

You can only shoot em a few times before its just too much to bear.

What is that, an Apache?

Who are they shooting at?

It seems like the victims aren't too concerned with what's going on...

Looking at the web page for the prairie dog video, it says they use a .223, a .22-250 and a .17HMR.

I use a .22-250, and it does produce that kind of result.

I guess I never thought about it, it does look more like a .22-250. The .50 would really make a huge dust cloud, I also doubt that the .50 would stop behind the dog on the other side like you can clearly see in a few other shots.

hey guys what you do not see on the apache video is that the bad guys who got dead were playing the classic game of "who me I dont have any weapons" they tossed them in the field before we they were shot.

I have a few hours of Apache gun video but I'm not sure how to load it for you to see it.

Mattsbox.. the Hellfire missle travels at 950mph. The Apache can carry 16 of them but usually only carries 8 and an additional 36 rockets.
