Sometimes they shatter and can enter the soldiers shoulder or neck. This happened in 2008 South Ossetia. Georgian soldier died of internal bleeding in the neck. If a .50 or .57 cal it will often go through a helmet. Many soldiers in history do not strap on the helmet due to every helmet being just about the same size.
