[QUOTE="engineer40, post: 1176723, member: 90399"] I had a pack of 100 paper targets still in new plastic wrap sitting on the ground about 4-5 feet away from a steel target. I ended up not shooting at any paper that day and just shot the steel. The bullet fragments off the the steel penetrated all 100 paper targets in the stack. I had to throw them all away. It really is amazing how those bullets fragment so violently and in so many pieces. I read once that because of the heat and pressure of the impact, the fragments actually are liquid for a very short time then harden up again while flying through the air. That could just be folklore though, not sure. [/QUOTE]
