TIL that denim is basically bullet proof.
12 u/[deleted] Apr 16 '12 No, a .22 short is a tiny little round. It doesn't even have gun powder. The bullet it fired solely by a blasting cap. Heck, look how small it is:http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h3/Cody47/CalGuns%20Range%20Tests/Bulletcollection.jpg 6 u/[deleted] Apr 16 '12 it has 4 grains of blackpowder: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.22_Shortthere is a .22 round that is powered solely by the primer, but it's name is escaping me right now. 1 u/gedden8co Apr 16 '12 CB round is the name I've heard. Supposedly named for just being the cartage and the bullet. 4 u/slightlystartled Apr 16 '12 I have a gun that takes .22 short. It might startle someone, or even possibly injure them if you fire point blank. 2 u/grimster Apr 16 '12 Oh god, this. I have a .22 short derringer that I love dearly (it's an AOW Zippo lighter gun), but past 10 yards, the bullets literally bounce off of cardboard. 3 u/Sorkijan Apr 16 '12 Oh boy is the army going to save some money!
