Any one watch the movie Shooter yet with Mark Walberg .It actually talks about Paper Patched bullets although the guy was wrong about not having groove marks left in them .Arnie

I've seen it, but I'm not enough of a balistics junkie to know if that would work or not.

I saw the movie, liked it mostly.  Never have shot PP but I doubt you could match the rifling of a PP'd bullet to any rifle, since the paper would prevent most of the identifying marks from making it to the bullet.

Not sure if their "theory" would work.
God, Family, and guns, in that order!
