It's nonlethal as long as you fire DIRECTLY into the air.

Just don't fire at an angle :X

MLP can take a long walk off a short goddamn pier.

And in other news, looks like my plans this weekend got called off, on account of my cousin apparently going hunting instead. Meh.

And damn PT kicked my ass today, I am gonna be sore tomorrow.

[up][up]Anyone hit by a bullet from 1000m high traveling at n times the acceleration due to gravity in a straight line will still get a world of hurt.

If you fire it straight up, the rotation of the bullet will cause it to destabilize and tumble as it hits apogee, and it comes down at a much lower terminal velocity. If you fire it at the slightest angle, it'll still retain some velocity at apogee, only it's sideways instead of vertical, so the spin of the bullet continues to stabilize it and it comes back down nose-first. That's how accidental gunshot injuries happen.

Depends on the bullet. Terminal velocity exists and because bullets fall on their side, rather than straight down (aka the point headed down) they are technically non-lethal for some of the smaller rounds.

Mythbusters has tested this.

That's the reason why it's important to not fire at an angle: if you fire at an angle, the bullet no longer "Drops" to being on its side, meaning that its terminal velocity is higher
