As for Reynolds number, it seems that so long as the
flow is turbulent, and well away from Mach one, the
v^2 dependence is valid.
What we have found is that if the bullet is released
in water, regardless of its initial orientation, very
quickly turns and falls sideways.
I wonder if the bullet will still be spinning when it
hits the ground?
Problem is the drag coeff for such an approach
assumes the bullet falls point first, which we've
found, is not the case.
