Can a Gatling Gun Cut Down a Tree?

Posted February 28, 2008 by nick

Fifty rounds a second.

Three thousand rounds a minute.

That’s how fast the Dillion M-134 minigun, mini-gatling gun, can spit out bullets.

Why is this relevant? Because when you start counting the seconds, you can count how many bullets cut down this tree, as the guys from Mythbusters have demonstrated.

I don’t know what’s more fun to watch. The tree tumbling and catching fire or watching a chick in a dress fire a high-powered weapon.
