@ 200 yards it didn't go through, rest bounced off? dang if I wasn't the one shootin I'd say you gotta get closer! then again bouncing back would not be a good thing either. fifty yards should have a lot more energy in the round.

my 300 Win mag blasted thru 1/2 steel plate and 11 in stump at 50 ft. Great spark show.. 338 was even more spectacular.

I stand corrected I'll admit, it's been years since I had that USS catalog.

You gotta love redheads ("or else").

I'm sorry but a .50 BMG running AP rounds will and sould go through it.Now if your running 750 Grain copper rounds or other then no it wont go through.I have used AP rounds and shot RR iron at 200 and 300 yrds and no problem going though them now the 6 inch thick bearing plate thats a diferrent story.The ground hog was no problem at 200 with a APT round smoked his butt.

Here is a pic of a piece of track that has holes "Drilled" in it with a gas axe. This chunk of track is real handy to have around.
