Tim -
Have you ever seen a softball sized hail that falls - smashes roofs to
junk
and puts deep bends in cars.
Then there is the smaller stuff that are golf ball size that knocks out
people
left and right.
I suspect you are talking about pea size or rice size. Yea - that is
almost like snow.

I think you will find that softball size and probably golf
ball size hail often has much more energy than the terminal
velocity of a falling rifle bullet. By the way, nobody
mentioned pistol bullets. Although they often weight more
than rifle bullets, pistol are much less aerodynamic than
rifle bullets and would not achieve as high a terminal
velocity and would cause less damage than a pointed rifle
bullet.
