The 4th printing of the Core Rule book has corrected this, to where an item leaving your person returns to normal size, for both Enlarge and Reduce Person.

Uhmm, it doesn't appear in the errata document.

That's how the spell (Reduce Person) reads in my book (2nd printing iirc)

"Any reduced item that leaves
the reduced creature’s possession (including a projectile or thrown
weapon) instantly returns to its normal size. This means that thrown weapons deal their normal damage (projectiles deal damage based
on the size of the weapon that fired them)."

Note that projectiles still deal damage based on the size of the weapon (which was reduced and deals less damage as stated in the spell description).

I can't see where the description hasn been "fixed", is the same since the 1st print.

We houseruled that projectile weapons still deal normal sized damage, because this spell quite literally doesn't make sense in this aspect. The gun isn't doing the damage, it's the projectile, and the damage of the weapon is the representation of the projectile. Devs just weren't using their brains this day or something.

I assume as the weight is lost the speed of the projectile increases to what it would have been if it had been the smaller size when fired from the weapon as for a weapon like a bow the power doesn't come inherently with the arrow but rather from the bow imparting it and even with magic the simplest thing would be to assume that momentum is maintained, even for guns the weight/size of the bullet after being fired doesn't matter if momentum is conserved as the amount of gunpowder used to fire it would be that of a large sized bullet and the bullet would only shrink after being fired.
