at close range a 50 doesn't expand or yaw it just goes straight through. on something small like a sheep or a person a head, shoulder or spine shot will be terminal with most ammo. Other wise you just get a 1/2 inch hole going in and a little bigger hole coming out.

At 150yds a lung shot from a 50bmg hornady 750grn A-max does less damage to a whitetail than a 243 with shooting rem corlokts. There are no frangiable rounds available to the shooting public for the 50 bmg unless you roll your own. And no animal on this continent has the mass to expand a non frangible round.

no cauterizing, no burn mark, that's your pullet and gun powder residue. just a hole. going in and coming out. You can shoot a ground hog and barely damage the hide.
