What if you could insert an extremly hard frozen water bullet into a shell and keep it cold with dry ice until ready for use.

No Ballistics and only the water for evidence.

Logical or Pipe Dream?

    By the time the Ice bullet left the barrel the friction would melt it and you would be left holding the worlds most powerful squirt gun.

    But you would need a chyroigenic(SP) treated barrel to shoot the Ice bullet.

    A hot barrel, is a warm fuzzy feeling.

    In the old magic trick where a bullet is shot threw a plate and caught in the magicians teeth is done by haveing the mark, oops, I mean audience member, examine a real cartridge and mark it. Then the real one is palmed and replaced with a marked cartridge with a bee's wax bullet. It nearly melts in the barrel and just breaks the plate, while the magician produces a slug from his cheek. The wax doesn't wet the powder either.

    They did exactly that on tv several months ago, it was a CSI episode. I guess it would work, it did on tv. Had me convinced anyway.
