What is a Bullet Head

[colt1851]

Boolits. Sounds corny.

 

[jethunter]

Some people call cartridges "bullets". So for those people, the "bullet tip" is the projectile part of the cartridge.

It's wrong but it's not worth getting snooty over imo.

'I promise..just the tip' Sorry couldn't resist..

 

[propliner]

I can shoot five tips from a clip if I do my part.

This is a "bullet head".

Actually that is a "cone head"...and one of my fav movies...

My fav's ....."loaded ammunition" & "Live ammunition"

Is there any other kind? Is there "unloaded ammunition"? Dead ammunition?

If it's not loaded (with primer and powder and Bullet) then it is NOT ammunition ...is it?

Nomenclature is important.....

Boolit head is the worst of all.

I wouldn't call 'Looky an attention whore.

Well thank you.
I'd sure label Le Casa Joyyuzz an attention whore though.

Dont forget Case, not Casing. Casings are for sausages. Mmm

 

[threecentsolution]

Sort of like a pinhead only not as sharp

 

[New Camper]

Your use of punctuation is radically ungrammatical, yet we all know exactly what you mean. Interesting.

Please make the corrections in bold so that I know what I did wrong.

I've actively participated in about 6 forums over the lifespan of the internet and hung out a little at about a dozen more. All of them have a couple of people that make up their own languages or use some sort of self created lingo to try to make themselves look special. A few of them have some good information but most of them just babble on hoping someone will look at their nonsense.

One thing they all have in common is that they are just attention whores.

How about mule deer, not "mulies", unless we want to start calling whitetail deer "Whities"

if it is "spent" it is not ammunition anymore.....its a case (not a casing...lol)

You mean flagtails?

Speed goats
Yodel dogs
Swamp donkeys

Or when the easterners call gophers ‘prairie dogs’.
