Standing on a bank of  swimming pool & snake lying on bottom of pool you aim precisely & fired a bullet hit.?

You wouldn't hit the snake, and the water has nothing to do with the trajectory of the bullet.\nWhat you want to keep in mind is the refraction of light in air compared to water.\nFor example, if you put a stick half in and half out of water, you'll notice that it doesn't look straight anymore.  The part in the water will be offset from the part in the air.\nTherefore if you aim directly at the snake, you'll miss.

At what altitude is the lead bullet being fired??   And what is the rest of your question??

Yes, I like the idea of using the shotgun. I would advise aiming for the face and maybe another shot to the chest. The memories will last longer. peace.

Nope, it actually happens.  A friend of mine who served in Viet Nam actually lost control of his bladder when his platoon was clearing out some wounded troops and they got fired upon.  He jumped into the helicopter and noticed that he had urinated all over himself. \n\nI have never been shot at, so I can't say what I would do.

Gun ammunition holds explosive charge INSIDE the cartridge.  When the hammer on the firearm hits the rear of the cartridge, the charge is ignited, and the bullet is propelled forward.\n\nAs long as the cartridge is waterproof, the pistol should fire fine if it got wet.  Here are two sites that mention that [seem to imply] that cartridges are generally waterproof:\nhttp://faculty.ncwc.edu/toconnor/425/425lect06.htm\nhttp://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/land/bullets.htm\n\nAs for firing underwater, it would probably depend on the gun.  They're not specifically designed for the resistance that a gun barrel filled with water would give, but remember that bullets are designed to create force primarily along the forward axis, not sideways.  I'd imagine that modern gun barrels are strong enough to handle an underwater shot, though you'd get an enormous kickback from the resistance.\n\nNote that I'm no gun expert, but I think the notions about guns not firing when wet and exploding underwater are based on older-style weapons.  When you pour dry gunpowder into a musket, it's exposed to the weather, and wouldn't ignite if it got wet.  And it's explosive force is outward, and so if the barrel has slight resistance, it might just explode.\n\n\nEdited To Add:\n[Here's a cool explanation of some testing of underwater shooting.  In short: the guns fired fine, no damage to the guns, though the cartridges jammed after firing.  Your mileage may vary.]\nhttp://www.loadammo.com/Topics/May02.htm

DUCK... Shots Fired...

If the bullet is fired in the horizontel direction, both object will reach ground at the same time.. because they are reaching ground due to vertical gravitational acceleration only which is same for both.\n\nBut if the bullet is fired in the downward direction and at an angle downwards, it will reach grounf first because it is having a initial velocity as well whereas the initial velocity for the other object is zero.. The reverse holds true if the bullet is fired upwards.

not sure..but you should definitely read the book "Salvation on Sand Mountain" by Dennis Covington.  It talks about snake handling and it's a very good book.

I think it would land behind you because as it rises, the rotational speed of the bullet around the earth would have to increase in order to keep up with you because it's going around a larger circle.  Of course, if you're going around a sphere, that could also be considered to be in front of you.  Also, I doubt that the bullet would fall at the same speed that it was shot.  I don't think that gravity would get it going as fast as the gun did.

The force applied to the beast (by the bullet) would have to be calculated by the angle/arc of it's descent, this new force differential may cause a new vector.  ie  If it was falling straight down and you fired straight up...no change.....if it were coming in at 45^ angle down, the bullets force will slow it slightly, and it's arc down will have increased due to the continuing force of gravity...with less momentum.  That is...also only if the head stays attached....if not then...the two bodies must be calculaated by the individual resistance/force of the bullet....    In the end...take one step to the right...after your shot...and watch out for falling bits and pieces.

depends on where you were shot

Shoot it with a bb gun from behind (hidden from the camera)..

I was shot in the left bicep with a .223 british military round. What did I think before? Well before it happened I thought, my god I hope I don't get shot, I hope I shoot the other guy first. When it happened it felt like a really big bee stung me on my arm, and then it started to burn really bad. Afterwards I thought, I hope somebody shot that son of a byatch, and somebody had already.

I've been shot at in Iraq a couple of times. Lucky for me I'm pretty good with a .50 cal.
