okay one you guys are getting off topic.
secondly: IT"S NOT AN ICE BULLET that I am gettig at... the ice is merely like a shell around the bullet. re-read the OP
I don't give a $#!t if the ice would be the projectile hitting the target. I understand how silly this idea sounds, but get with the program, this thread was created to get the creative juices flowing in your heads, but apparently those juices seem to be frozen like the idea of this bullet, or at least the ice that was purposed to surround it.
Okay so now that I have that out of the way, seriously and sorry for being insulting, I just want this thread back on track.
The idea ISN'T about a abullet made of ice, I ALREADY KNEW THAT ICE WOULD SHATTER AND MELT JUST FROM THE EXPLOSION the concept is to create a round that would have NO rifling on it.
There would really be no leagal purpose unless you consider SpecOps to be a legal purpose and it's possible from them to need something like this, as to not incriminate America or any other country for that matter. Needless to say it's just an IDEA.
So I hope you are following with me here now, it's just a concept and not one that looks to find a way to make a bullet out of ice to be the projectile (mainly).
What about using wax as the shell surrounding the bullet, would that hold up better???
