We have small trigger cranks for our semi MGs, which work well since we shoot them on tripods. Plus we get the cool ammo. So we always want to see what we can set on fire, punch through, and/or blow up. It's amazing what they can pack in a ~ 700 grain bullet. I have MK211 Raufoss rounds but they are generally not available and thus very expensive. But API/APIT is fun and a dime a dozen (well, not exactly a dime).
Colour me jealous! You guys get all the fun. This one was mounted on the side of a ship so all I felt was a little vibration through the handles
Target was a flare so didn't get to see any effect of the round unfortunately. I'm still amazed by the rate of fire though, the guy conducting the shoot was telling us every 5th round is a tracer and I remember there being less than a foot between the tail of one tracer and the start of the next. Wicked amount of fire power.
