    Similar to when the American army had a machine gun range on long island with a safety zone that extended out to sea a few miles. Fisherman new and stayed well clear.
    Changing to a boat tailed projectile added considerably to the effective range, and the army only found this out when a fishing boat about 2 miles outside the former exclusion zone got hit.
