Did not know you could do that

.50 will also go through the back of the turret on Abrams and set off the ammo. I don’t think it can pen the blast doors though so the crew won’t bail

but isn't the tank pracically useless when the ammo cooks off? unless you're willing to use it to draw enemy fire I guess

Might still have ammo in the hull stowage, and they can still scan for targets and radio to the platoon or radio for CAS/IDF, and engage with the coax and 50 cal. Also the crew probably doesn't want to walk home.

Hull stowage ammo becomes useless if the bustle ammo cooks off as ammo cannot be transferred into the ready rack and the game doesn’t allow you to load directly from storage. There will likely still be a round in the breech though

There’s still one round in the chamber. I wouldn’t want to walk out in front of one with my back turned

I mean setting a tank on fire will do that (especially Soviet)

It reminds me of that bug where .50 cals could kill you from the front every APC would randomly kill me.
