How far does the sound of a gunshot travel1 min read
Reading Time: < 1 minutesA gunshot is a loud noise that can be heard for a long distance. The sound of a gunshot travels much further than the actual bullet. The sound of a gunshot is created by the explosive force of the bullet hitting the target. This force creates a shockwave that travels out from the target. The shockwave is what creates the loud noise of the gunshot.
The sound of a gunshot can travel for up to a mile. However, the sound will start to fade after a few hundred yards. The sound of a gunshot is also affected by the weather. The wind can carry the sound of a gunshot for a much longer distance.
