[TheForge] OT - Yak Gun question

[Lynn Emrich]

I'm just hoping that someone will have the knowledge
to satisfy my curiosity. 
There were a couple of incidents reported in the local
news about people being hit by bullets being fired
into the air. It doesn't seem logical to me that a
falling piece of lead would gain enough speed to do
anyone any real harm. 
My guess would be something about like throwing the
spent bullets at them. Am I way off on the velocity
that a bullet world gain?
Thanks for allowing me an OT question,
Lynn

South Florida Fair coming up - for those FABA members
that would like to volunteer time or others that would
like to see an old time forge. See you there.
