re: Retarded things you've heard about guns or bullets.

I think it was posted here before that a bullet would pretty much vaporize at about 400 yards because it was going wayyyyyyy too fast by the time it got there. Hence my bullets speed up comment

Yep that would be the guy I work with.

I can't tell you how many arguments I've gotten in over the bullet rising theory. I always ask them did the bullet find a way to over come gravity or spread wings after it leaves the barrel?

I always thought, at least around where I live the 30-30 made such a good "brush" gun is because it's compact. It makes a great climber gun in the woods.

My one retarded thing is about solid bullets. "If a bullet don't blow up it just passes thru the deer doing very little damage."
