How can you trace a criminal by a bullet?

When a bullet is fired from a rifled firearm, the rifling leaves marks on the bullet. Those marks are unique to that gun, and no other gun makes exactly the same marks. If a bullet (or fired cartridge casing) is recovered from a crime scene, and we suspect that YOUR gun was used to commit this crime, then a sample bullet is fired from your gun, and compared to the crime scene bullet. A comparison microscope is used to compare the bullets, or marks made on the fired cartridge case by the extractor and firing pin.

Yes, forensics experts can use a process called ballistics analysis to match a fired bullet to the gun that fired it. This involves examining unique markings left on the bullet by the barrel of the gun, such as striations or rifling marks. By comparing these markings with test-fired bullets from a suspected gun, investigators can determine if there is a match.
