No doubt lol but once the rounds deplete their ballistic potential 🏹 they just fall to the ground like small pebbles
Fair enough... allow me to refine; some poor bastard gunna look up and catch a pebble in the eye....or have one bounce off their forehead.

Actually, these "pebbles" can be quite deadly or, at least, damaging for the health, considering their weight, shape, and the height from which they fall.
Here is a nice video that does some math and even shows statistics...

Good vid @db4craigslist.
I do admit that I could have phrased that better. The falling projectile's mass is relative to it's falling terminal velocity. A .30 cal. rifle bullet falls at aprox. 300 feet per second where as a 9 mili falls between 150-250 fps. I have no idea how much energy they have, but from what I have read, they say that the bullet must be traveling at a speed of 200fsp/135mph to break the skin. It's orientation also effects the amount of damage potential ie: tip down, tip up or sideways...it's most likely gonna hurt, but unlikely kill a healthy adult.
