Ammunition

Yes, and no.

There are certain bullets that are designed with extreme piercing in mind.

Such bullets are important to the military.

Most bullets, however, are not strong enough to pierce steel.

It also depends on the type of steel involved. A 20 foot thick piece of steel could assuredly not be pierced by ANY bullet that is produced today.

But a baking sheet thickness of steel could be pierced by steel.

About 2 inches of steel can stop a bullet for most bullets :)

If you're considering using a piece of steel to wear to get shot in-

Just say no to stupid ;)

No.

Fire symbol 1 signifies ammunition with a mass explosion hazard.

Let's use the correct term- CARTRIDGE. Bullet is the PART of a cartridge that comes out of the end of the barrel.

The 30-06 (usually pronounced as thirty ought six) is a .30 caliber rifle cartridge- meaning that the bullet is 30/100ths of an inch in diameter. It was developed in 1906. It was called that to help distinguish it from an earlier .30 caliber cartridge- the 30-40 Krag (which had a .30 caliber bullet, driven by 40 grains of black powder, and was created by the Krag/ Jorgensen Company)

Naming practices tend to change over time, and are not always uniform. Good question, tho.

If there's varying sizes of airsoft pellets, then each size will only work for airsoft guns intended to take that size pellet. Others will be either too small or too large, and could end up damaging your airsoft gun, or even getting stuck in the barrel.

Under most circumstances, a .22 can easily penetrate human skin. There have been numerous fatal shootings with .22 cal firearms- and even a .22 pellet gun can penetrate skin.

Velocity loss is probably in the area of 200 to 300 fps less than a rifle.

Depending on the arrow, yes, it may. A .22LR bullet is fairly light weight (40 grains) is is relatively blunt. The arrow weighs more, and is shaped to push through material.

Different places, different laws. When hunting migratory birds, such as doves, ducks, geese, a shotgun may only hold THREE shells (Federal law in the US) Some states, such Colorado, have a FIVE cartridge limit for rifles, no limit for handguns. Virginia has no limit on rifles, but has a 3 shell limit for shotguns. Your best answer will come from the Game Commission where you live (and we do not know where you live). If you do not know how to contact them, leave a message on my message board, and I will see if I can help you.

Depending on the weight, possibly, but in most cases, accuracy may not be good.

depends on the powder you are using. there are published data from the powder makers listed on the Internet.

I assume you mean .35 Remington rifle ammunition vs. standard 30-30 rifle ammo. If so then they are not the same and although they look similar they are not interchangable. I hope this answers your question.

Assuming you cannot unload the round by firing it at a safe backdrop, you use an attachment to your ramrod or cleaning rod called a worm. The worm resembles a screw. It drills into the lead of the bullet and allows you to draw it out of the muzzle. Take care since the firearm is still charged.

That will depend on how heavy the bullet is, what powder load is used, and the length of barrel it is fired from. It may range from 1000 feet per second up to 1400 ft per second- or faster. BTW, there are MANY different "9mm" pistol cartridges- the speed I just gave you is for the 9mm Parabellum- aka 9mm Luger.

Too broad a question. Muzzle velocity is determined by the specific cartridge, barrel length, barrel tolerances, etc.

It means that a sealant was used on the primer and the bullet to prevent oil from getting inside the cartridge- which could cause a misfire.

Gun shows, gun shops, online retailers.

Assuming you mean 9mm, and not calibre, you have a number of options. There's the 9x19 Parabellum/Luger, the 9x17 (more commonly known as the .380 ACP in the US), the 9x18 Makarov, the 9x21, the 9x23 Steyr, 9x23 Winchester, 9x25 Mauser 'Export', 9x25 Dillon... quite a variety to choose from.

Most likely, you'd be referring to a 9x19 firearm (also known as 9mm Luger or Parabellum).

Metrically, it's known as the 11.43x23mm for marketing/military nomenclature purposes.

The bullet itself has a diameter of 11.5mm/.452 inches.

In all reality, the cartridges are almost even. When both are using heavy bullets (about 200 grains), they tie. when using lighter bullets (150 grains), the 30-06 outclasses the 7.92x57mm because the bullet can move faster and not drop as much. For hunting purposes, I would stick with a 30-06 (Even though I own a 7.92x57mm Rifle) because you have more options with bullet weights.

generally speaking, any .25 ACP ammo will work, assuming it's a .25 semi-auto pistol.

Bad idea unless you are a professional.

Many people have lost fingers, hands, eyes and even life from trying to remove the powder from a live round of ammunition. Don't do it.

Agree with the two answers above. Now that three of us have told you that, leave it alone. It's official. Very dangerous, and unsmart.

You will have to define what you want to use the weapon for. Loads vary from 90 - 147 grain.

Grain is a unit of weight, like pounds ounces or grams. There are 7000 grains to a US pound. Both bullets and powder charges are measured in grains. However, when referring to a particular version of a cartridge, grain will USUALLY refer to the weight of the bullet- as in a 125 gr. .357- they are speaking of a .357 Magnum cartridge loaded with a 125 grain bullet.
