    I shoot a lot of steel targets at short range at the pistol club and on my own range at home but the difference is that the face of targets are angled downwards and the firearms and calibres being used are considerably slower paced than an AR15. Even so there is still the occasional fragmentation splash back hence the compulsory wearing of eye protection. It is just dumb shooting steel with fast paced centre fire rifles at short range.

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
