Roman bullets tell story of 1,800-year-old attack on Scottish fort | Fox News

More of an acheology story in the news. Pretty interesting with the whistle bullets. I am guessing they used the Shepherd sling. I have practiced and learned the use of the shepherd sling some time ago if anyone want to see a picture of one I have.

Wind up and let it rip. It is surprising at how fast your learn the release and the speed you can acquire with this ancient weapon. .....
