I was out shooting my 20 ga shotgun when I was about 19. I head some "pops" and looked back behind where I was. There was a guy standing behind a truck, about 300 yards away, shooting what looked like a .22 rifle at me. I don't think there was enough velocity to carry the bullet all of the way to me; I don't think any of them came close. Even a more pathetic threat, at that distance, was my little shotgun. I popped off a round in his direction and he skedaddled into his truck and out of there.

To this day I have no idea why this guy decided to stop and take pot-shots at some 19 year old that was practicing with his shotgun. Perhaps he knew he could not hit me, but I am betting, if he aimed high enough, something could have made its way to me. I have not thought about that for many years! I don't remember being scared at the time.

I did get shot with a BB gun at point blank range...into my left thigh. It basically bounced off and left a blood blister kind of injury, and it hurt like hell. I think I was probably 12 or 13.

Well, for what it is worth, I can tell you that:

It is an X-ray
An X-ray of a knee and upper leg
There are foreign objects imbedded that look like bullets
Yes, I am an RN, Nurse Practitioner, and worked 17 years in the emergency room...seen lots of x-rays with bullets.

For what it's worth, not sure why everyone is skeptical. I read the old thread and agree that his actions were very questionable, but we always say, "Pictures or it didn't happen!". Dude posted pictures.

Not sure why he wanted to bring that horse back to life just so it could get beaten to death again, but I am not him.
