[QUOTE="Professor Doolittle, post: 2276241, member: 118902"] also, the bullet is soft copper over soft lead and very hot instantly so even if the oil was incompressible the bullet would simply squirt past it. The melting point of lead is very low, 621F. in a high-powered rifle the lead core is close to being a liquid while its still in the bore. [/QUOTE]
