[meteorite-list] ] Meteorites as Ammunition
How strange you should ask. A friend of mine and I decided to make some projectiles a round 6 weeks ago. I am using 1 inch slabs of Campo, and having the bullets cut out on a water jet, then finnished on a lathe. They will be shot using a 50 BMG rifle with a sabot. As soon as Nosler Bullets gets back up and running,( they had an explosion a little bit ago) we should have some slow Motion closeup balistic shots to enjoy. We want to try this on Materials like Robert Bigelows inflatable space structures. __ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorites as Ammunition
It wouldn't be practical to melt meteorites to make musket balls. That's not to say that iron meteorites couldn't be used as ammunition just as they are. The blunderbuss had a large enough bore and muzzle to accpt smaller meteorites as is. In fact it wasn't uncommon for users of the blunderbuss to load it with rocks, nails, and anythnig else that happened to be around. Same with canons.

Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorites as Ammunition
I never saw the movie, but there are plenty of historical references to cannoneers using scrap of all kinds (metal, glass, rocks, gravel, lengths of chain, etc.). The common commercially-made equivalent ammunition was grapeshot and canister rounds. Getting hit with grapeshot or a canister round would definitely make your eyes water.

Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorites as Ammunition
thats the melting point for pure iron. The Ni works like antifreeze and lowers the melting range about 50 degrees. I bet if i straped some magnets on my armadillo she could dig up some meteorites a lot faster than Speedy!

Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorites as Ammunition
Remaining indoors is only one solution, Count. As I learned in school long time ago, the appropriate reaction in the case of ABC-attack while walking outdoors is: jumping into the next roadside ditch and protecting your head with the schoolbag. Well, that would do in the case of an alien-meteoritical attack as well I guess. In that special situation carrying a dip net with you would be fine :-) Best, Matthias - Original Message - From: countde...@earthlink.net To: meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com Sent: Tuesday, July 27, 2010 10:33 PM Subject: [meteorite-list] Meteorites as Ammunition Attention List!

Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorites as Ammunition
Not sure about reality, but there's and awesome Outer Limits where a meteorite lands in either Japan or China and they make ammunition (bullets) out of the iron and... you guessed it... four solders get shot, and get taken over by aliens that were within (inside) the meteorite (unsure if this is how they traveled or what) and these four individuals did amazing feats (through mind control) and built a spaceship to take some humans to their alien world. It's a really good episode if you like that kind of show - it was first aired on the original Outer Limits and also redone on the 1990's Outer Limits. Pretty cool... one of my favorites Greg S.

You'd have to paint him to match the desert sands - or he would end up as bowl of turtle soup in some nomad's tent. ;) On a more serious, sneaky and illegal note - I wonder if anyone has put magnets in their shoes and then took a walk around Meteor Crater? I can picture some sneak going back to his car, taking his shoes off, removing the magnets, and then shale, spheroids and fragments fall off the bottom of the shoes. Not that I would condone that, but I bet it would work.

Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorites as Ammunition
Bill says ...just about any firearm. Just about any muzzle loader with a patched round can eat balls made of meteorite material, or anything else for that matter. It wouldn't surprise me if we learned that some enterprising conquistador had heated up some Campo and used the balls in his matchlock..or a canon. Does anyone care to expound on what temp one would have to heat an iron meteorite to be able to pour the melt into a mold to make a musket ball? Could different classes of irons have different melt temperatures? Would inclusions be easily seperated?
