Still love the comment from the one guy "We're not doing that again".

Gee...shooting a .50 BMG rifle at a hard target 100 yards away seems smart. Not like there would be any energy left with that bullet that has an effective range of well over 1 mile.

That's pretty scary, but so is this one right next to it:

I've never heard of an XD having any catastrophic failure. I can't find any backstory for this (if he was using handloads or +P ammo etc).

I've seen it happen, i was standing right next to a guy who kb'd his XD-45 on some crappy handloads. it looked exactly like the one in the picture.
