It is the same when you are stupid.

Fun! Love that sound!
Folks ain't got a sense of humor no more. They don't laugh they just get sore.

Need to follow the rules. Just hard to determine which set of rules to follow
Now the rules have changed again.

That gong sound? Yes...I do to. He hit the gong on his second go. Which is a huge big deal for any .308.

Super…

Appeared to have enough energy left to leave a very noticeable mark.  MDA/FAA considers 1 gram (approximately 15.5 grains) at terminal velocity carrying 11.1ft/lb energy as potentially lethal (10% probability of penetration in a lethal area, 90% probability of lethality given penetration).  That is based upon a random distribution of falling debris. 
Opinion,untempered by fact,is ignorance.

There are some who do not fear death... for they are more afraid of not really living

Most guys that can really shoot sit on that side of the gun. ;)
