   Yeah, I want this to be an anti personnel weapon (zombie herd anyone?:p)   
   At first, I was thinking about 10x30 cm cone, but later I changed to something   
   smaller, a few centimeters long and wide, I think that's enough for killing   
   people and cars. I had a problem with estimating damage, because I don't know   
   effects of kinetic    
   hit at those speeds, I know KE equation, but it gives me only knowledge of   
   energy in joules, not how it is distributed. I used online calculator for tnt   
   with energy of my bullets, but I don't know how that's accurate...
