Maybe to pattern a shotgun with birdshot or target loads, but not for a rifle or handgun.
FWIW, never trust a stand of trees to stop anything.CliffH said:What's behind them depends on where they're placed. In two directions there are a line of trees about 20' deep with houses on the other side, the third side has 5 acres of scrub & trees with a highway on the other side of it.
Why can't my golf balls do that?!The point is, somehow a 45 bullet found a clear enough path to traverse a significant distance of thick forest and retain enough energy to do noticable damage to a house 1/4 mile away.
and the arrows come out the other side with regularity.

While highly improbable, it's possible the one or two degree heat increase from a bullet could light it up.
