might be a repost, the site is wacky tonight for me.
if a bullet moving at any velocity and impacts water, or a feather pillow, is considered absolutely worthless by gunsmiths for the practice of slugging a barrel.
then how can the fired bullet be 1. measured and given a caliber 2. be used to compare to a bullet fired from a test shot in the lab into water tank?
heres logic loop
1. impact deforms bullet beyond what the barrels bore is, thus it is not gong to give correct measurement of the bore
2. if bullets deform differently from shot to shot, and differently in different material how can a bullet pulled from say a log be compared to a bullet that was shot into a water tank?
