Depends on WHICH .22 bullet, what it was fired from, what kind of wood, and at what distance. .22 CB caps, fired from a pistol, at 20 ft, will bounce OFF a pine 2x4. A high velocity 40 gr .22 LR, fired from a rifle, will penetrate about 1 inch in the same 2x4.

How far would a bullet penetrate in wood?

The penetration of a bullet in wood depends on several factors, including the type of bullet, its caliber, velocity, and the type of wood. Generally, a typical handgun bullet can penetrate wood to a depth of 12 to 24 inches, while a rifle bullet may penetrate even deeper, potentially exceeding 30 inches in softer woods. Denser hardwoods may reduce penetration depth compared to softer woods. Ultimately, specific conditions and variables will influence the exact penetration depth.


What type of wood cannot be penetrated by a bullet?

All wood can be penetrated to an extent. It depends on the thickness and mass of a given piece of wood that decides how far the bullet will penetrate or if it will exit out the other side


How far will a 223 caliber bullet penetrate into wood?

Sorry- there are too many variables to give you a simple answer. Depends on which bullet, fired by which rifle, at which wood, at which distance, at what angle. Depends on civilian .223, or military 5.56mm. The military round at 25 yards will penetrate more than one dozen 3/4 inch thick pine boards when hitting at a 90 degree angle. That is more than 9 inches of wood.


How far will a 45 caliber bullet fired from a Taurus judge penetrate a 2x10 if fired from a distance of 3-5 yards?

A .45 caliber bullet fired from a Taurus Judge, particularly with .45 Long Colt or .410 shot shells, can penetrate wood, but the extent of penetration will depend on factors like bullet type and velocity. Generally, a .45 bullet can penetrate 2x10 lumber by several inches, possibly up to 6-8 inches, depending on the specific load and distance. At 3-5 yards, the bullet retains significant energy, likely resulting in deeper penetration than at greater distances. However, exact penetration can vary based on the ammunition used and the condition of the wood.

What is the effective range of a 22 caliber bullet since 2000 yards is how far it travels how far can it travel before it can no longer penetrate a skull?

effective range is the distance where a skilled shooter can reliably hit a target. For 22 LR, that is about 135-150 yards. The distance at which it will no longer penetrate a skull has too many variables to give a simple answer. The bullet usually drops to below speed of sound by 100 yards, and is dropping velocity quickly after that. By 400 yards it would be unlikely to cause a serious wound.
