Really?
I've never had someone with a serious mad on for me and a 50 come after
me, but I've had rifle rounds (7.62x51) come close enough to clip hair and
it didn't even damage my hearing in that ear to detectable levels.
.50 cal puts out a lot more energy, but the bow wave is not going to have
a huge increase in force. Not enough to compormise skull integrity.
I'm just saying that I would want to see it, thats all.
