[QUOTE="Rich Coyle, post: 1541383, member: 70559"] One day I wanted to see how much energy it takes to deform a let tip .308 bullet. I set it on the garage floor with the tip oriented vertically. A very hard smash with a hammer and the bullet hit at least two and maybe three walls fast[B]![/B] before coming to rest. Apparently the hammer didn't hit it squarely because there was the slightest scrape on the lead tip. It sure opened my eyes to the energy of a firearm. [/QUOTE]
