Title: Bullet loaded into arrowhead ?
Post by: Jingles on February 27, 2013, 02:41:31 PM: Ok I was watching the tv today and saw a commercial where the guy loaded a 38/357 into an arrowhead and fired it from a compound and the thing fired when it hit the head of the wild hog. Are these things real or was I imagining things in the commercial?

What happens if you miss, and the arrow ricochets and then hits something, and the bullet flies out going who knows where? Is there enough of a "barrel" that the bullet just wont have any velocity?

They do look bad ass though!

Your spot on. No barrel, no velocity. Notice how they sound way different than a handgun. More like a 22 than a 357 sound. Just like in the movies when they throw a box of cartriges in a fire and bullets go flying. Thats a hoax also.
