When you are using tracers and can see the number of rounds bounce off the ground without hearing them you very quickly realise that far more rounds are heading off into uncontrolled locations than you first thought.
    And, wet ground can be just as problematic.

    .22 PCP slugs have the same problem.

    If you don't want ricochets, go small cal, go light weight, go fast!

    Was it banned during the buyback ?
