[QUOTE="Jason millichamp, post: 1625107, member: 109739"] Indeed a bullet will not tumble but only swap ends. It's physics. The heavier part of the bullet will start going first when it becomes unstable and the front will follow oscillating or wagging behind the heavier part. It will look like it's going through the tartget sideways but it's just the point following the heavy part and being badly out of line. Some very heavy stable artillary projectiles when launched will impact the target at the same angle as the when launched. The tip will not follow the flight path. [/QUOTE]
