. Poor visibility in water + refraction adds up to one helluva shooter, would like to be under his tutelage. Who's the man ?
It's true mate, old muzzle loaders still work on big murrels, pellets must be in limited numbers otherwise PASTE" as quoted by OUP.perazzi wrote:Ronish Hi ,
Whereabouts are ye from ?

OUP, time to take shot is the split of a second when the fish come to the surface for air gulping, so no refractive error.OverUnderPump wrote:Scenario: 30-06 on murrel, Instant fish paste
That said, give me a line or a net any day.

The only negative about this forum is that a lot of guys , lots of times , just talk through their hats not really knowing jack shit.OverUnderPump wrote:Scenario: 30-06 on murrel, Instant fish paste .

Bows & crossbows require no license.ronish wrote:abhijeet, and what about the cross bow, here in my area many use custom made cross bows on snake heads (murrels). its damn powerful & accurate.l. i also own one,which is unused for many years.is this illegal?
OUP even a powerful calibre (like the 30-06) will loose most of its energy on hitting water. I don't recall the exact distances but I think they completely loose their effectiveness within as little as 4-5 feet or so... will try and see if I can dig out details on real life studies conducted...OverUnderPump wrote: Scenario: 30-06 on murrel, Instant fish paste
The next gun up was the M1, which shoots at 2800 ft/s. In their Bulletproof Glass mythbusting, the M1 was capable of penetrating 2.5" of bulletproof glass.
* M1@ 10 ft: tiny bullet fragments once again
* M1@ 2 ft: the bullet only pierced the gel 4", which would be enough to just pierce the skin.
They finally broke out the big gun, the .50 cal with armor-piercing rounds, which are shot at 3000 ft/s.
Adam: "Hopefully we'll be gone before the pool fully drains"
* .50 cal @ 10 ft: even though the water exploded, the ballistics gel was intact. Water made it all the way up to the ceiling. As it was with the previous guns, the bullet round came apart on impact. It lost all of it's energy within the first 3 ft. You would be safe 14" underwater at a 23 angle from a .50 cal.
confirmed: you can protect yourself from a bullet by diving underwater. If the shooter were directly overhead, you would probably be safe from most guns at 8 ft. At a 30 degree angle, you would only have to be 3 ft underwater to be safe.
Nice read that, now I know jack sh1tmundaire wrote:OK, not really an authoritative study but got an experiment conducted by the Mythbusters team. http://kwc.org/mythbusters/2005/07/myth ... water.html
.Doubly difficult to shoot fish then eh' ? I'll still prefer a line or a net.
