Now I’ve seen all sort of weird and disgusting crap including yes used condoms. But for my quiet bucolic little neighborhood by the prarie this is a new one.
That is a .22 caliber Long Rifle bullet lying on the sidewalk sans case. This is what it looks like if you either pulled the slug out or fired it into 50 feet of Owens Corning Pink Panther home insulation.
In fact there’s two of ‘em.

It’s obvious. They’re migrating.

I’d think there’d be deformation even if shot into the insulation. Don’t you have to shoot into water to keep the shape?

The disintegrate when they hit water... At bullet speeds water is as hard as concrete...
I’d lean pulled though.

But ... they fire into water tanks to test for ballistics in crime labs. I’d think they’d use the method that results in the least amount of deformation, no?

If they needed to test the ballistics of something, I’d assumed that something would have been used to shoot someone/thing. Bullets deform when they hit stuff. Jacketed bullets won’t shatter when they hit water, but .22s aren’t jacketed.
But if it was actually fired, there’d still be markes from the barrel rifling, so I’m also going with “not fired”.

Also look like that if someone fires at a shallow arc and it bleeds off most its energy via drag. We had tons of bullets of all shapes and sizes that’d land in the field behind our backstop if someone shot just over it. Though I don’t see any rifle marks on yours so it probably just came from someone’s reloading supplies.

They look very long to be a .22 bullet, though I suppose it’s possible to be a really long subsonic round. The color also seems more zinc or tin than lead, but maybe that’s the camera or my monitor.
