LOL......Yes, I hear they are planning to use the 6.5CM as the next gen anti-sat weapon system.I think you have to hit 62 miles (above sea level) of altitude to make it to outer space. Don't think a rifle has that range, except maybe the 6.5 CM.
If it were possible, some of your reloaded ammo might have the best chance of making it. Aim at Mars. Then, when Elon Musk finally gets there and finds your bullets, he'll have to conclude there used to be human life on Mars.I have seen a rifle shot into the air before but I never witnessed the bullet falling down again. Has anyone else noticed this ?
I can only guess the bullet must be in orbit with all the other space junk.
Your math is wrong.30-378 Weatherby Magnum with a 180 gr spitzer going 3,250fps fired straight up, 18,000ft of elevation or not quite 3-1/2 miles up.
Needs muzzle brake and flash hider for sure.Hypersonic space cannon promises 10 minutes from ground to orbit
Rockets are expensive, complex, bad for the environment and prone to occasionally exploding – so alternative launch technologies are popping up to reduce their use. We wrote about SpinLaunch's remarkable kinetic launch system earlier this week, which spins a rocket up to incredible speeds on the…newatlas.com
This was the old attempts thanks to Gerald Bull:
"A 16-inch (41 cm) HARP gun operated by the U.S. Army's Ballistic Research Laboratory (now called the U.S. Army Research Laboratory) at Yuma Proving Ground currently holds the world record for the highest altitude, 180 km (110 mi), that a gun-fired projectile has achieved."
