Re: Surgeon Removes a Bullet from Wounded Soldier's Heart
Not always as it maybe went through a dirt wall, reducing speed before going through clothes and soft body tissue. As long it doesn't hit a bone or anything else of solid mass inbetween the gun and target.

Re: Surgeon Removes a Bullet from Wounded Soldier's Heart
That is absolutely not a 50 caliber bullet. It looks like a typical 7.62x54 copper jacketed round. Which makes sense since Russians use the 54r for numerous small arms. You just aren’t used to seeing the full length of the projectile outside of the brass case. |

Re: Surgeon Removes a Bullet from Wounded Soldier's Heart
Really simple. A .50BMG is a bit larger than 0.50” and VERY long, and a 7.62x54r is about 0.30” in diameter and kind of long. A bit more than an inch. About what you see in the video. This is a steel core jacketed 7.62x54r bullet probably from a PKP machine gun or possibly an SVD rifle. They’re big, long bullets, and a good part of it is buried into the neck of the cartridge.  |

Re: Surgeon Removes a Bullet from Wounded Soldier's Heart
I have a AR10 7.62 so have an idea about things as you can see by my post on page 1, but thanks anyway. Just looked way bigger than a 7.62 on first glance but thanks for the schooling.  |

Re: Surgeon Removes a Bullet from Wounded Soldier's Heart
Don't know how big the surgeon's hands are but that looks like a .50 cal and it's unusual that it stopped inside him. Must have been a pot shot from long distance or it went through something first.

Re: Surgeon Removes a Bullet from Wounded Soldier's Heart
^ I dunno it's hard to tell, I agree it looks a bit bigger than 7.62 but if his hands are small could possibly be that  |
