Just about any object in space will rotate - not just asteroids.
I don't get the difference. "Tumble end-over-end" is just that - rotate around their axis.
Asteroids are practically all in orbits around the Sun, between the orbits of the planets. There is a large main belt between Mars and Jupiter, and more farther out past Neptune.Spin and wobble of asteroids is caused partly by impacts with other small bodies, and by the gravitational influence of the major planets. Likewise, one of the few things that will stop a spin once it starts would be tidal interaction with planets and moons. This also tends to establish orbital resonance with relatively nearby objects.

Yes, asteroids are found in our solar system. It is estimated that over 100,000 asteroids are located in the belt between Jupiter and Mars.
Asteroids are found all over the solar system. The vast majority is located in the asteroid belt between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter.

The tumbling motion of some asteroids is often the result of their irregular shape and uneven mass distribution, which can lead to unstable rotational dynamics. Additionally, collisions with other celestial bodies or gravitational interactions can alter their rotation patterns. In contrast, more spherical asteroids tend to rotate around their axis due to a more uniform distribution of mass, allowing for stable rotation. These differences highlight the diverse evolutionary histories and physical characteristics of asteroids in our solar system.

Scientists estimate that there are over 750,000 asteroids in the solar system, with the majority found in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. This number continues to grow as more are discovered through telescopic observations and space missions.

It means the bullet began to rotate end-over-end through the wound channel.
"In space" is probably too general an answer. In truth, asteroids are all over the solar system. The majority of asteroids travel in a poorly-defined region called the "Asteroid Belt" between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter, approximately 4 AU out from the Sun.But there are plenty of asteroids that orbit at other distances as well.
Rocks in space are formed through processes such as melting, crystallization, and solidification of materials in the early solar system. These materials can come from the remnants of supernovae explosions or from the accretion of smaller particles in space. Over time, these processes lead to the formation of asteroids, comets, and planets, which are composed of rock-like materials.
