Jayb,

The British .38-200 pistol round has a MV of 620 fps; would you stand in front of one and take a pill on your lumberjack shirt?

NNN,

Indigenous use steel star picket nulla nullas to sort domestic disagreements.

Superior technology? No, better availability and economy of movement. They don't have to scour bush for a good one when there are so many just standing there.

Calibre? Who cares, cop this!

Spiritual progress will direct the placid devotees to respond to violence with calmness. If a gang demands your wallet then hand over your Claymore. Peace brother.

Australian star pickets don't bend with abuse like the inferior imported ones.

Indigenous have some things to thank those peaceful settlers for.

Is Mise: The British .38-200 pistol round has a MV of 620 fps; would you stand in front of one and take a pill on your lumberjack shirt?

A velocity of 630 ft/s (189 m/s) at the muzzle, and over 570 feet (170 m) per second at 50 yards (46 m). That's a drop of 60 fps in 50 Metres. Now double that for the next 50m & then double that for every 50m thereafter. Using the Inverse relationships Theory. At 400m, yes, I think I'd be safe even if it got that far. Mind you, I'd have to wear my Flannel shirt on my head. ;-)

With resistance drag being velocity squared Area a speed bowler loses his grip on power at 20 metres. This gives the advantage to grape-shot at feral range with low co-efficient of resistance.
