Yes, bullets do spin when they are fired. This spinning motion, known as rifling, helps stabilize the bullet's flight path and improve accuracy.
Bullets spin when fired from a gun because of rifling, which are spiral grooves inside the gun barrel. The spinning motion stabilizes the bullet's flight, improving accuracy and range.
Bullets spin when fired from a gun due to the rifling inside the barrel. Rifling consists of grooves that twist around the inside of the barrel, causing the bullet to spin as it travels down the barrel. This spinning motion stabilizes the bullet's flight and improves accuracy.
Rifling in the barrel is actually grooves cut into the barrel by the manufacturer to cause the bullet to spin as it leaves the barrel. Before rifling the bullets would tend to tumble when they left the barrel causing them to have shorter range and be less accurate.
Spiral grooves cut into the inside of the barrel- known as rifling.
Bullets spin when fired from a rifle or handgun due to the rifling inside the barrel. Rifling consists of helical grooves that create a twist as the bullet travels through the barrel, imparting a rotational force. This spin stabilizes the bullet's flight, allowing for greater accuracy and range by maintaining its trajectory. The design ensures that the bullet remains pointed in the direction of travel, reducing wobble and improving precision.
Bullets rotate due to the grooves that run down the inside of the barrel walls in a "helical" shape - this is known as "rifling". The grooves make contact with the bullet as it it fired down the barrel and cause it to spin. This improves its aerodynamic stability and accuracy.
The soldier's RIFLE was far more accurate than any other gun he had shot, due to the grooves inside the barrel that gave fired bullets a spin.

Because of the rifling inside the barrel. If you want to know the purpose of that, the answer is, it causes the bullet to travel farther and more accurately, just like when you throw a football.
To make bullets spin so they fly straight.
To make the bullets more accurate by causing them to spin.
