Research notes
The 416 Barrett was designed in 2005 by Chris Barrett and Pete Forras as an alternative to the .50 Browning as a long range anti-personnel rifle. It is based on a shortened and necked down .50 Browning case and offers superior ballistics to the .50 cal as the .416 cal bullet retains more energy at 1,000 yards than the 50 cal.
