15 feet
Are you interested in knowing how far a 12 gauge slug will travel, or are you looking for the distance various loads of shot will travel?
it all depends on the speed that the bullet is shot at. other contributing factors include the angle of the shot and the distance from the ground that the bullet is shot at. sadly, the x-factor of this question is that the ground determines how far it will ricochet. if the ground is water, it will not ricochet.
James Earl Ray shot Martin Luther King Jr. from a nearby bathroom window at a distance of about 205 feet.
The distance a 9mm 115grain bullet can travel depends on factors such as the angle of firing, speed at which it was shot, and the surrounding environment. On average, a 9mm bullet can travel up to 1.5 to 2 miles in ideal conditions.
I don't understand the question. Were you shot in the back with a .22 and wonder how far it could have gone?
Sorry, you need to specify WHICH .308 bullet and at what distance. As distance increases, the RATE of drop also increases.
A bullet from a handgun can travel, on average, about a mile.
about 36km
Muzzle loader or centerfire?
thousands of feet
The distance a bullet will travel is dependent upon many factors. The three greatest factors in determining the distance a bullet will travel are caliber of the bullet, the weight of the bullet, and the trajectory used when firing the weapon. Many ammunition manufacturers provide "maximum" distances on the individual packages of each type of bullet.
A 150 grain bullet shot from a 308 will start dropping the fraction of a second it leaves the barrel.
