This was taken in northern Colorado in the Pawnee national grasslands. This is a pair single round bolt action 50-caliber rifles that are owned by one of my friends. We spend the day and find a safe spot and scout the area before we begin target practice. We typically set up a target 1/4 to 1/2 mile away but this rifle is capable of 1 mile+.
For those less rifle savvy, the large block on the front of the muzzle is a muzzle break. This causes the hot gasses to exit back and away helping with recoil.
Firing this rifle is really fun and does sound like a tank going off but it really doesn't kick like you think it would. Just don't stand directly behind or too close to either side of the weapon. As it goes off, the muzzle break kicks up dust and the blast does create a little bit of a concussion wave around it.
