On closer inspection we found a torn up strip of grass around 20-30 meters infont of the target and sideways profiles of the bullets at random all over the ply. The bullets were hitting the ground and bouncing like a cricket ball a flying off into the distance. It was a safe setup but I had not experienced this before as normally theres a trench and bullet buried in the dirt. So ricochet can happen of the paddok floor and it doesnt have to be a hard surface.
