I fired a tank round in the Zatar Wetlands and destroyed a tank in Call of Duty 2. It was an easy one-shot kill those Shermans pretty much suck against an M1.

I've taken helicopters down that were out of my draw distance and at least 300-400m with tank shells (I love being able to see the names of enemies out of draw distance). I always assumed they kept going until they dipped and hit something.

IT'S NOT A TANK SHELL it's a tank round. The shell is what holds the powder to fire the round.

explain then, if you would be so kind, why they refer to "shelling" a target...

Artillery... commence dropping empty Cannon Casings on the enemy!

Not actually true. A shell is a projectile which contains explosives rather than being solid, like a bullet is.

I believe reliable sources such as wikipedia and google search over the word of someone on a forum.

Interesting. I'm an American and I call it a tank shell, and everyone I've ever heard in my life calls it a tank shell. Even freaking history channel says tank shell.

hmmm it's been awhile but without going to look it up somewhere I think it goes this way:

Shell + Shell Casing = One Round* 

*Note: the shell and casing must be attached when refering to it as a 'round' otherwise once separated they change supply classes and become hazardous material and dunnage......ah too much dust

Thats right, a tank's shell can go atleast 590 meters!  I was sitting on the island lobbing shells at the carrier, I got 2 kill damage assists and killed scottishdwarf   If only we had a reliable aiming system
