“They all land somewhere”

Yep.

Back in the 90s my wife was complaining about a water stain in her closet ceiling of the house we lived in at the time, so I went into the attic to investigate and discovered a small shaft of light coming through the roof.
There happened to be a main A/C supply duct right underneath with a hole in it as well.
Suspecting what it was I went on the roof and sure enough, the hole was just big enough to get the tip of my pinkey in.
That round still had enough velocity to go into the ac duct after going through a shingle, sheathing and 1/2” OSB......if it would have hit someone instead of my roof it could have killed ‘em dead as a door nail.
Local cops took down a guy in a hail of bullets, years ago. The grocery store that was across the street sat a bit lower than the parking lot where the shooting occurred. The bullet(s?) had to travel across one of the busiest streets in town, over another parking lot, and across the sidewalk in front of the store to lodge in the watermelon display. At least one of them did.
