I wonder if those are ballistic rounds, or explosive, didn't think that a piece of lead could explode like that.

 

[big_johnson1]

Big rounds, high velocity.. I don't think they'd NEED to be explosive..

 

[jswift872]

ummm....SWEET ;D ;D

They're not explosive... that's tracer fire... the "burst" sort of thing you see around the target is ricocheting tracer rounds. Tracer fire during the day is cool enough... during the night it's sort of like star-wars...

And Torn, "Kinetic" (Full Metal Jacket and Hollow Point are just two examples of kinetic rounds). Ballistics refers to the study of projectiles in motion. Every X round in a belt of ammunition is a tracer round, the bullet contains phosphor, and burns as it travels, making it possible to see while in flight... helps with aiming machine guns...

 

[JasonH]

In the round?  I thought the round was coated with it and it burns in flight?

Hey does anyone know the name of the last song used in that video?  I heard a really cool version of it done by one of the CF bands, but without singing and was wondering what it was called.
