[DL] Badges and bullets...

["Andrew Cunningham" <techie@techie.f9.co.uk>]

What would happen if a typical sheriff's badge (ie solid copper, possibly
plated with silver or brass) was hit in the centre by a pistol bullet? Or a
rifle bullet? (assuming peacemaker and winchester). Traditionally you should
get a perfect hole, but would they actually shatter? This is just one of
those vague, could go anywhere questions... Ideally I'd like to hear from
target-shooters who've shot small solid metal objects ;)
