Rat Shot

50 BMG Ratshot

I'm scrolling through a bunch of nonsense this morning when this pops up and I have to laugh. It's just so absurd. 50 BMG is a 50 caliber bullet for a Browning Machine Gun. They are typically used for stopping unarmored vehicles. There are ratshot cartiridges, but they are typically made for smaller calibers like the 22. I looked around to see if this is a real thing, but all I found was one other photo on reddit but no evidence that it is an actual product.

  1. Don’t forget the 500 S&W Magnum, and ‎Desert Eagle .50 AE although neither will take that Ratshot. Nobody in their right mind would either.LoL

  2. Why would nobody use ratshot from such a large-bore gun? These days you can get steel shot, and if you stick it in a strong magnetic field first, you've basically shot someone with an ounce of tiny magnets. Can you imagine the internal damage?
