Like the way it split apart on the rifleing groves.

Peeled like a banana.

I'll 2nd that!

Very cool video , but why does it look as though the bullet is spinning counter clockwise when the rifling I would think would make it spin clockwise ?
Is it an optical illusion like the wheels on a car appearing to spin in reverse when the car is going forward ?

Again and again and again...


Uber Cool!

To me it looks like it's spinning the right direction.
Imagine the rifling was more pronounced, like blades on a fan.
Then imagine it was floating in the hair, hovering in front of your face.
Now blow on it.
It would spin counter clockwise, no?

Ok , after pondering this for too long I started researching it .
I did not know there are firearms with right hand twist and with left hand twist in the rifling of the barrel .Right hand twist in the rifling gives the bullet a right hand twist in flight and a left hand twist gives a left hand twist in flight .
Found out that the reasoning for this is it appears to have a minor improvement in accuracy depending on cross wind direction and also if the shooter is shooting a rifle on his right or left shoulder .
It appears that if the twist of the barrel forces the stock against the shooters cheek when the shot is fired the gun is more stable and therefore may be more accurate .
I understand the crosswind reasoning but harder to explain it .
