The biggest problem with the myth busters segment was that the bullets may or may not have maintained there spin. at the apex, the kinetic energy would be zero, but the rotational kinetic energy was unknown, if it was small, the spin would dissolve into a random falling bullet, however, if it was still large enough to maintain spin, it would be more aerodynamic and could reach a higher terminal velocity.
