I wonder how it compares to the Barrett, and I wonder why they didn’t go to the .50 cal.

‘cuz the .50BMG is really big and heavy, not something you want to drag around while crawling in the brush for hours/days at a time.

I wonder how it compares to the Barrett, and I wonder why they didnt go to the .50 cal. I imagine it's a might easier to hump than the Big Fifties. It seems to be more of anti personnel weapon, while the .50 is more of an anti material weapon. We use .300 Win Mag for the longer range anti personnel role, but of course the .50 works for that too. Oh boy does it ever.
