Hickok45 has showcased a lot of guns on his YouTube channel but for the first time ever, he’s shooting a .50 BMG.

Hickock45 has built up an impressive following on his YouTube channel with over 134k subscribers. And its unbelievable to think that with all the rounds he’s fired and all the videos he has made in all that time, he’s never before shot a .50 BMG for his channel? But, thanks to his son, John, we finally get to see what it looks like for the great Hickok45 to fire off a few rounds from a .50 BMG.

Impressions on shooting the .50 BMG
While it's not exactly the thundering explosions that we sometimes expect to see in the movies when you shoot off a 50 cal round. Hickock45 states there isn’t much of a recoil and isn't as much as a 12 gauge, as most people would think. See the Hickock45 .50BMG footage here.

It’s not just an awesome rifle, it’s a leaf blower too.

My friends are always surprised by the lack of recoil when they shoot my 50BMG the 1st time.

Thought the recoil would be punishing.... guess it isn’t so bad.
