That episode they were shooting directly into a swimming pool, and I think the close-to-max velocity of the bullet caused them to disintegrate.
Or in other words, I wouldn’t assume that bullets impacting water at lower velocities would behave the same.
Fwiw, I don’t remember them using a 50 cal. The amount of energy in a 50BMG compared to even a 30 cal round is ridiculously huge, and IMO would have risked damaging the pool.
