Pretty sketchy - I couldn't find anything in the current Chicago papers, but I don't doubt it for a minute.

Worlds Slowest Long-Range Bullet Discovered in Chicago Area

Source: The Illinois Shooter via W.A.C. Newsletter
Published: Spring 2000

School officials in an uppity Chicago suburb have identified the world's slowest long-range 9mm bullet.

At first, the bullet was thought to have been part of a drive-by shooting commited by an idiot belonging to a local street gang. Since "those" kinds of people and "that" sort of thing doesn't happen in this neighborhood, another explanation had to be found.

Fortunately, one of the administrators - apparently a former rocket scientist in some little known third world country - was able to give the only plausible explanation: the bullet must have been fired from a nearby shooting range, which he specifically named.

The fact that the range was 14 miles away and had been closed over six months did not seem to bother anyone.

The news media reported the incident just as the school administration said it happened. Since school officials and the news media are never wrong, they must have discovered the world's (perhaps the galaxy's) slowest and longest-range 9mm bullet.
 
And once again the sheeple will believe...

CMOS :mad:

NRA? Good. Now join the GOA!
 
Reminds me of the SNL skit where they had the magic bullet that flew around and hit Kennedy a bunch of times, and then went to Little Rock and hit Martin Luther King, and then flew out to California to hit RFK, and then disappeared for a few years before attacking the Pope.

Only that was a joke.
 
Yet another reason why I like the .357mag over the 9 parabellum. Range was pretty good but the velocity left a lot to be desired.

By my calculations, figuring the range was 73,920 feet away, assuming six months closure at 30 days per month, the bullet was traveling at an average speed of 4.75308641975308641975308641975X10-3 FPS. Can anyone tell me what the probable muzzle velocity was?

Now would that be African or European ? That's important to concider due to the load bearing capability. :)

It seems that they don't even have to provide lies that even have the semblance of rationality these days for the sheeple to believe them.
 
It could grip it by the husk! Err, maybe the ogive?

European swallow, no...has to beat it's wings too many times a second to maintain air-speed velocity.

African, yeah well maybe...but there non-migratory.

:D
