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.
A 9mm bullet will travel approximately 2200 meters before it begins to descend to the ground. However, unless the person shooting the gun is in a open field, the bullet will not travel that far before hitting something.
it depends where, what angle . if the bullet is led no it will splatter on a bone but it might go in the tissue and it depends how far you are up close it will go right though you! but if you were standing on a 4 story building and a person shoots from the ground you, will be like a paint ball it depends where, what angle . if the bullet is led no it will splatter on a bone but it might go in the tissue and it depends how far you are up close it will go right though you! but if you were standing on a 4 story building and a person shoots from the ground you, will be like a paint ball
When a .30-30 bullet is shot straight up in the air, it can reach an altitude of around 1 to 2 miles before losing momentum and falling back to the ground. The actual height depends on factors such as the angle of the shot, the bullet weight, and environmental conditions.
Assuming no affects from air and a smooth geography, both bullets would fall at the same rate of 9.81 m/s^2 toward earth, and hit the ground simultaneously. You have to look at the bullet's velocity as having a horizontal and vertical velocity vectors. The vertical velocity vector is independent from that of the horizontal. The horizontal vector would be the speed at which the bullet is fired, and the vertical vector is the speed at which the bullet falls due to gravity.
A bullet hardly slows down at all after being fired. While bullets come in a variety of shapes, sizes and weights, they are all failry aerodynamic and thus minimally impacted by the wind resistance (friction). A bullet's primary enemy is actually gravity. Once fired, it is a matter of time before gravity pulls the bullet crashing down into the earth...assuming it does not strike something first. While a high powered rifle will send a bullet farther and faster than a .38 pistol, fired from the same height, at the same trajectory over level ground, they will have almost identical hang times. Again, the faster bullet will simply go farther. The speed loss for any bullet, (buck shot not included) is negligible. It will strike the ground or object in its way with almost the same speed as when it was fired no matter how far away it is. This is of course excluding shots in the air where there is little horizontal movement and the trajectory is mostly verticle. Here, obvioulsy, gravity will take over and the bullet will ultimately fall back to the ground at the terminal velocity - much slower than muzzle velocity.
To the ground.

how far does 380 bullet travel
There are too many factors that determine how far a bullet can travel to say with any accuracy how any one particular bullet will travel. For pistol bullets, most people say the average is about a mile.
Over a mile, yes
as far as it wants
The path is close to a parabola.
Bullet train by far
In theory, yes. In practice, no. In theory, You could fire the bullet with such a great speed that it would orbit the Earth, even if it was only at a height of 1 meter from Earth's surface. In practice, however, their is air resistance. This would cause the bullet to lose speed, and eventually it would fall the the ground.
Accurately? About 400 meters. When fired at about a 41 degreee angle, it will travel about 2 miles. But at that range, will not hit anything (except the ground)
2m
