[QUOTE="preventec47, post: 1625090, member: 22159"] It doesnt matter what you agree with. You know what they call people who insist on remaining ignorant ? Go study "Principles of Artillery 101" If what you said is true, there would be no need for grooves in barrels, they would all be smooth bore. In fact some projectiles do adhere to your explanation and they are or can be shot from smooth bores. Tanks and Shotgun slugs as examples........ NOT modern BULLETS. If fact... you got it backwards. When impacting gel for instance, why do you think bullets swap ends ? Because the center of gravity is behind the center of friction/drag. And for the other expert who doesnt like 15 degrees, have him study english for the understanding of the expression "for clarity" And hey, yes some bullets are/were shaped like footballs. In the 30's there were experiments showing pointed on both ends outperformed all others but later testing revealed that truncating the rear point into "boattail" shape provided 90ish percent of the improvement with major improvements in practicality. I would not have said anything but I hate to see know-it-alls to profess they know it all when they dont. Here is the lesson for the expert who only thinks there is stabilized or not stabilized. There in fact us under stabilized, stabilized and over stabilized. That's all. [/QUOTE]
