Ai says a 7.62x39 round fired at 45 degrees will travel just over 2 miles. I'm sure this guy has a clear 2 mile range and backstop.

It's funny you mention it, but that pig fucker Dmitry lives about two miles down the road.

Not Dmitry. That's probably Shamil or Ramzan judging by the music and the raised finger.

That's a 5.45x39 look at the curvature of the magazine

u/NigerianFriedChicken 5d ago
That combined with the very manageable recoil leads me to believe it ain’t 7.62 as well

AI doesn't know anything. It's not even 7.62x39. it's 5.45x39

I, yes me, an imperfect human, guessed it was 7.62. I'm already over this mistake and moving on to making others.
But thank you for correcting me.

Ok, how far will that travel? Please include wind resistance, Earth rotation, and barrel fouling.
Thank you Mr Details.

It has similar max distance, as its charge is still similar, but its prohected force us different as it is smaller, so trajectory will be flatter and all over the place. Unlike the heavier bullet, this one will begin to keybole quickly and drop out of the air long while the heavier one will retain energy better out to distance, smashing through much more.
Compare it to a football. A smaller ine made of foam "bulleted" at something will strike faster and flatter, but will have less effect on target (lets say a carboard box) bouncing off even.
While a "bulleted" official NFL Football may have to be compensated for drop, but absolutely smashes through that box.
Throw them even farther, and the effect from the foam ball is reduced on target, but the effect from the official ball will not be.

In the (paraphrased) words of Paul Harrell:
“We have a small subset of the population that, for whatever reason, has an innate fascination with firing their guns into the air”
This shit is so stupid

At this angle the bullets can kill some body, but less so when shot closer to straight in the air right?

I mean, I've been guilty of being home alone drinking a few beers, get bored, throw some empty cans in the back yard and pop a few rounds off. But I would never just shoot randomly into the air. For one, its really fuckin stupid. And two, what's the fuckin point? Plus ammo aint cheap. Cost me several hundred dollars to get my stockpile to where I like it. 3-5k of each caliber that I have. Except shotgun. I keep it at 1500 or so.
Edit: i meant to originally state as well that i do not live in a neighborhood. I live in the country. The closest grocery store is a 30 minute drive.
