Why doesn't imparting spin on a bullet with rifling cause the bullet to go off trajectory with the magnus effect if theres wind?
>>64501672I think it just happens so fast that it doesn't matter.>t. retard that doesn't actually know
>>64501672because bullets aren't balls
>>64501672Because the axis of spin is parallel to the trajectory of bullet's movement.

>>64501672It does do that. That's why some machine gun optics have spin drift compensation. It's just that at most ranges its effect is negligible.
It does, retard.Earth's rotation is also a factor.
You Need momentum tò oppose another objects momentum.mass*Velocity, Wind tò apply a force Need a large surface area, bullets dont have a large surface area, are going much faster than Wind.And you Need to account Wind variation, but It varies for distance.
>>64501833Theoretically, if you were to shoot a bullet at just the right angle and velocity into a tornado, would it get spun right round baby right round?
I add rifling to my barrels precisely to make them go off course when im shooting outside
>>64501862Its path in space would bear some resemblance to a record baby right round round round, yes.
>>64501882Make sure to shoot your guns upside down indoors to counter the Coriolis effect.
dumb question but does shooting a gun in australia differ from shooting a gun in murmansk in terms of rotation?https://youtu.be/OnB4qMT5R_Y
>>64501919why would it? You're not a globetard, are you?
