    Sling it off fire hose, no chain strikes to worry about. Also hang at an angle say 10 degrees off vertical so bullet splash is directed into the ground, this cuts out the possibility of riccocets as well. Get the holes cut with a plasma torch or find someone with an anti tank rifle to do it for you.

    Yeah hanging it off bolts seems to be the easiest way make it hang at an angle, I have hammerd in steel stakes I made that I use for my .22 at an angle and all ricochets and splash are contained on a sheet of newspaper infront of it.
