Just dropped in for a quick cold one and was on it merry way.
Is the energy of this round being fired known?

Maybe he should go into buisness for handcrafted metal swiss cheese sculptures. On another note, how can you afford to shoot at safes? Grammar note: what is the plural form of the word safe? safi?

Maybe even market swiss cheesed safes
Imagine the look on a safe crackers face when a
swissed safe is discovered.It would have them thinking,"Is this for real,were is the catch"

Then they see jeepkahn pointing a strange metal contraption at them, it has a tank full of c02 and an angry spudder with a trigger happy finger

Decimation.

Thanks

That's the explosive impact I expect from high speed stuff.
I get the same results with larger projectiles and jugs of water. Nice. Don't stand too close. I got a shower last time I did that from about 10 feet away.

It's surprising how far the water droplets can fly. Even shots from cannons on the relatively small scales I work on are capable of throwing water 30 feet or more.
Actually, a few of the video takes I've done have been ruined for that exact reason - the camera gets drenched and the lens covered in droplets.
