Remember, that is a ricochet... you can hear the whine as it tumbles through the air, much more slowly than it went down range.

And for the record, I don't volunteer to have a minor league pitcher chunk 750 grains of bronze at my head at 90+mph.
you could see it bounce one more time before it hit the guy. While I don't believe that I would want to get hit by it .. At 750grs is less than 2 oz is still less energy than a baseball at the same speed

Am I the only one that percieves the speed of the bullet at about the speed of a fastball thrown by a decent minor league player.
