If you haven't checked our bulletin recently, don't miss the report on the new Deutsche Waffenwerkes 1000m Heavy Gun. It showcases some remarkable advancements, including fin-stabilized bullets, and optical in-flight guidance.

It kind of scares me that guns like this might be available.

It might eventually take the sport out of shooting.

Arrrggghh

I am so stupid. There were so many things wrong and I missed them all.

I cell phone camera thing should he tipped me off. Those were going to really labor intensive bullets to make. Imagine hooking them to the guidance system as well.

Guiding the bullet, boy you would have to be doing some fast steering.

I was the only one that fell for this it look like too.

DUH. I am Stupid.

Jon,

Trust me, you weren't the only one... which just proves it was a good spoof. Ironically, a lot of the stuff is actually doable--fin-stabilized projectiles for one thing. But no, I don't think we're going to put cameras in .338 bullets anytime soon... Not for sport shooters at least.
