I do not  reccomend shooting up unless out in the wilderness or have a back stop. Im talking about rimfires here. That being said I have a dumb question or maybe 3 or 4.LOL If a 17 gr hmr bullet is fire up at say a squirrel and misses when the bullet returns to earth would it have enough force to wound or even kill a person?I would not think so because it would be falling as if it were just dropped not fired at 2600 FPS. Am I wrong in thinking this.Forgive me but the older I get the more about physics I forget. Can someone elaborate? And does the bullet pick up speed while falling or not? Again I would not think so.
