A bullet is a projectile propelled by a firearm, sling, or air gun. Bullets do not normally contain explosives,[1] but damage the intended target by impact and penetration
bullets, heads, missiles we all know what we are talking about don't we tongueout I never could understand the 3 page threads that usually follow some poor wights misuse of what are, to all intents and purposes, interchangeable descriptive terms.

It is not interchangeable when it duplicates another part of the cartridge, it is sloppy practice at best confusing and at it's worst down right dangerous.
We've had this discussion a few times here but to no avail, personally I will not shoot beside anyone that calls bullets heads as I think such poor knowledge of the subject makes them dangerous.
The more I see of new and not so new shooters and reloaders who refuse to listen or learn the more I shoot on my own, I'm fortunate that I have the facilities to be able to do so.
This post modern attitude coupled with the internet peddling information as knowledge and peoples eagerness for it saddens and frightens me. Fortunately we do not see too much of it on here, but it creeps in occasionally.

if you wish to be pedantic about it then be my guest, the terms are in general use and they do not cause confusion as much as cause annoyance to you.
