I added this one because me and Wally were talking about bullets and he really didn't know the comparison to them, so I put a quarter next to them to compare the sizes. As you can see the 9mm and .38 are almost the same size (diameter) but the .38 has a lot more gun powder behind it (bigger casing) which makes it more powerful. The .30-06 speaks for itself! :giggle:

Man that's awesome! Do you have any shooting ranges near you where you can shoot them?

Hell yeah bro! Can't wait to try them out. :D

City we do have one here where I live, about 30 miles from where Blu lives. I think you gotta be a member of the gun range and the NRA to get membership.

Yeah what Brian said, unless I can find someone in my area that has their own land out side of town, then I would be able to go there.

So jelly...can you QS with that? :giggle:


Haha, I'm sure I can't do that, this is my first rifle so I'll have to get use to it. I've shot one once or twice before and it's nothing like shooting on Cod4 lol. When I do go shoot it I'll post some pics of my targets ;)

Thanks for the comparison, Blu.

What is/are the difference(s) between a bullet being flat and pointed? Just velocity?

Basically a hollow point will create much more damage than a round tip would. Watch this video, it explains it well! ;)

pointy=higher velocity/accuracy/deep impact....flat point=expansion after impact/destructive/stopping power.....9mm (short casing)faster cycling used for semi auto(short throw slides as in semi auto handguns)

holy moly!! :eek: Is that what police officers carry?

our police officers carry S+W 5906 9mm with safety rounds that make no exits,i.e fragment while within target,e.g.suspects body
