Bullet Holes

[BosseBe]

I'm a newbie so I must leave this to an EXPERT. Harvey, does premature withdrawal qualify? Cross posted.

Only one hole and that seems to be drilled!
What is that, a 5mm angle steel bar? I would think only a very high calibre rifle or a high speed rifle can penetrate that!

Please show Scandinavian bullet holes. I'm curious to compare clustering.????

Scandinavian bullet holes are always tight together, we pride us in making every shot count!

Personally I always go for the body shot, leaving the head shot to the prima-donnas or show-offs. ? (On the target range of course, no live targets for me.)

As I said earlier, bullet-holes are only seen in the emergency room in Sweden. (Or the target range, but holes in paper isn't interesting I think.)

Yes, 5mm. I think the perpetrator's performance didn't meet his expectations. And please tell @Brownie "clustering" is Swedish for "grouping" (Even if it's not)

The closest thing in Swedish to "grouping" would be grooping, but that is a word imported from English and means something else entirely, AFAIK.

And if you're good, are you a grouper? ?

Depending on distance he would've likely got whatever he was hunting.

I can sympathize with the perpetrator of this violent act, I to will occasionally get uncontrollable rage towards empty Pennzoil bottles.

I am not a proponent of recreational shooting of signs or stuff like that, nor a gun rights advocate. So, please don't interpret this post as supporting those. But, here are some historic bullet holes from the Pearl Harbor attack in Hanger 79 on Ford Island, part of the Pearl Harbor Aviation Museum.

Bullet holes left by strafing Japanese aircraft on Dec. 7, 1941. It's on the Historic Register so these can't be repaired.

@Holoholo55 I would think that all the "perps" in this thread are only responsible for the photos of the bullet holes, not the holes themselves.

I didn't say they were responsible for the holes. Just saying that my posting photos of bullet holes of historical interest does not imply that I endorse shooting at various and sundry objects. I've seen plenty of signs with bullet holes on the Big Island where hunting is popular.

Don't work! Harvey remediated that issue by the next frame.

That barrel has been used for target practice more than once.

Maybe air rifle pellets also qualifies?
