    0 yards 1120 fps
    25 yards 1070 fps
    50 yard 1028 fps
    75 yards 993 fps
    100 yards 961 fps

    Energy ( ft. lbs.)
    0 yards: 345 ft lbs
    25 yards: 316 ft lbs
    50 yards: 291 ft lbs
    75 yards: 271 ft lbs

    glory hole
    A hole the has been clandestinely drilled into a stall partition in a public rest room. Used to either spy on one's neighbor in the adjacent stall, or to facilitate sexual contact through the insertion of a penis through the hole.

    "I don't care who you are, that's funny right there!" (sometimes with this line added: "If you don't think that's funny you can get the hell outta here, 'cause that's funny right there...")
    Lord, I apologize... and be with the starving Pygmies down there in New Guinea. Amen.

    so at 960 fps or so, a 124 gr. .355" projectile, probably going to be very similar to being shot at close range by a .38 special. And the bullet's going to be moving considerably faster if fired from a 16" barrel. Not sure how much faster and I'm too lazy to look it up tonight, but I'm guessing the velocity would be around the same as a 9mm round fired from a pistol at close range.

    So I'll have to go with no, probably not a good idea. :facepalm:
