Shakran, you're wandering into the realm of disinformation. Modern ammo is generally waterproof, barring long-term immersion. I realize from your posts under the gun vs knife thread that you are fired up about the subject and hold a strong opinion, but misinformation is not necessary to prove a point.
"generally waterproof" meaning not always. I've shot (well. .. tried to shoot) a couple of bullets over the years that had gotten wet from rain and they would not fire. I never said "bullets NEVER fire when they're wet." Murphy is an active participant in all fights - if something can go wrong, it'll wait to do so until you really need it to go right.

And your gun can still jam, whether the bullet is wet or not.
