N2  - The trajectory specified for a given bullet impact is actually an approximation of the  flight path of the incoming bullet. It is only an approximation due to the inherent yawing, nutation, and precession of a bullet in motion. Although spin stabilization (imparted by the rifling within the bore of the barrel of a firearm) is working to counter the inherent destabilization characteristics of yaw, precession, and nutation, that job is only accomplished to a somewhat limited degree. Thus, a bullet seldom impacts a target at precisely the same orientation each time, requiring the labeling "approximate" to any trajectory specified for a fired bullet...<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
