If you purchased a lot of industrial diamonds -- costing about US$1.60 per pound -- and used it for target practice, you would end up with a lot of industrial diamonds in smaller pieces than the lot you started out with.

If you purchased a gem-stone diamond large enough to use for target practice, you might not be able to 'destroy' it: you might be able to split it into multiple pieces, significantly reducing its value. Or not.

Can diamonds be destroyed?

Diamonds are one of the hardest naturally occurring materials, so they are very difficult to destroy. While they can withstand high temperatures and most chemicals, they can be burned or vaporized at extremely high temperatures in a controlled environment. However, it would be very hard to destroy a diamond in normal everyday circumstances.


How many bullets does it take to blow up a tank by rpg?

Technically, an RPG is not a bullet- it is an anti-tank rocket. And there is no one answer- whether a tank is destroyed by an RPG will depend on exactly where- and at what angle- the rocket strikes the tank. It might be destroyed by one, or not destroyed by 10.


Is diamond bulletproof?

Well, there's two ways to look at that. A diamond is harder than any bullet, yes, but diamonds can shatter from blunt force impact - and it's not uncommon at all (ask any gem cutter). A bullet probably could not penetrate a diamond as it would the hide and flesh of an animal, for instance, but the tremendous energy of the bullet could shatter the diamond on impact if the diamond was hit in 'exactly' the right spot, or if the back of the target was also diamond, resisting the energy and focusing it on the target diamond. Diamonds are small enough and valuable enough that you should not try this at home.

Can bullets fall out of the barrel of a muzzle loader?

If they do, you loaded it with the wrong bullet. Bullets are a "squeeze fit". They may be wrapped in a greased cloth patch, or be made of really soft lead having grooves filled with grease. A properly sized bullet requires a strong push to fit it into the barrel. If the bullet did not stay tightly against the powder, but moved a few inches away, the gun would be destroyed on firing.
