I expect a product I spend my hard earned money on to perform better. Because I say so, it should have a force field that stops all damage. And I will be taking this one back to the Apple store and we will exchange it until I find one that does. Steve would have never let such a shoddy product hit the shelves. It would have at LEAST stood up to a Win. 500 if Steve had his input. Horrible quality control Apple. Horrible...

Its a 50BMG. Not exactly a close range rifle. That round needs a few hundred yards to settle down.

Let me just say after the second shot,i can't believe it was that "complete" anything else would have blown to pieces

Am I the only one that clapped my hand like a little kid when the bullet went through?
