12borejimbo Posted June 17, 2011 Report Share Posted June 17, 2011 That is seriously scary! Definately deserves a revoke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dazza Posted June 17, 2011 Report Share Posted June 17, 2011 I'm guessing he means rimfire HV rather than subsonic. How he can tell is another thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canis Posted June 17, 2011 Report Share Posted June 17, 2011 I'm guessing he means rimfire HV rather than subsonic. How he can tell is another thing. possibly because if it wasn't a rimfire it would have gone through the door? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dazza Posted June 17, 2011 Report Share Posted June 17, 2011 (edited) possibly because if it wasn't a rimfire it would have gone through the door? I meant how did he know the difference between a hypersonic slug and subsonic slug stuck in the door? Edited June 17, 2011 by dazza Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breastman Posted June 17, 2011 Report Share Posted June 17, 2011 possibly because if it wasn't a rimfire it would have gone through the door? Surely that would depend how far away if was shot from Which is why i asked. A .22 centrefire could be fired from literally miles away and embed in a timber door and if cuffy wants to identify where it was fired from its going to make it a whole lot more complicated Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al4x Posted June 17, 2011 Report Share Posted June 17, 2011 it'll be copper jacketed if centrefire, if rimmy a lump of lead but little way to tell a hv from a normal one on which basis I'll call BS till we see pictures Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

njc110381 Posted June 17, 2011 Report Share Posted June 17, 2011 (edited) A lot of HV rimfire rounds have a copper wash on them. Not a jacket but a coating. Never seen a sub with that on? Pictures of the offending bullet would be interesting though. Edited June 17, 2011 by njc110381 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gixer1 Posted June 18, 2011 Report Share Posted June 18, 2011 Joking aside that is bloody outrageous! that could have been your son/daughter walking out that door and taken that right in the head (by the looks of the height in the pic, i'd be looking for someone to "educate" do things like this not make you think that maybe sometimes there are some cases where FAC's should not be issued! :blink: can you take a pic from the door looking out to the terrain infront of your house (as long as it wouldn't give away a location) just interested to see where it could have come from?

Beretta28g Posted June 18, 2011 Report Share Posted June 18, 2011 (edited) Is a solid target round Sorry if is a stupid question but with a hollow point, id have expected more deformation of the bullet.
