Invented in 1918 by John Browning, the .50 BMG, also known
as the 50 Browning, 50 Browning Machine Gun, and  12.7x99mm,
has been used extensively in almost every U.S. conflict since its
adoption in 1923.
Adopted by the U.S. Military in 1923 the .50 has been used longer
than any other cartridge in military history.
(Note: The .45 ACP  is actually older, but was technically superseded.)
Technnically the .50 BMG is the biggest cartridge available to shooters
without the encumbrance restrictions.
(There are other wider diameter cartridges, but none larger available)

50 Cal Spotter-Tracer, M48A1, which is fired from the M8C Spotting Rifle, that is mounted on top of the 106mm recoilless (BAT) for (Battalion Anti-Tank) Artillary Cannon. The Spotter-Tracer cartridge is smaller then the regular 50 caliber Browning Machine Gun (BMG) cartridge. It matches the trajectory of the 106mm cannon projectile to follow, to ensure the 106mm has a good target impact.The projectile has a primer at the tip to ignite a mixture that produces a smoke spotter on impact, and also a tracer cup in the rear of the projectile to produce a tracer out to 1500 yards.

in regular 50 BMG guns, as a sighting in tool. The projectile has a primer at the
tip to ignite a mixture that produces a smoke spotter on impact, and also a tracer cup in the rear of the projectile to produce a tracer out to 1500 yards.

developed by the Norwegian company NAMMO (Nordic Ammunition Group) Raufoss, Norway.
