How does it work?
I have pretty much settled on brand/model and what not however I have in my reading learned only enough to have questions!
I have read "shoot over" and "shoot through" so which is it? does the bullet go over the whole thing or through the trapazoid?
Seems to me it has to go through.
Other than the obvious answer of "how far away do you want to know" answer, how far from the firearm should it be? I was kind of under the impression about 8 feet would be ok, but perhaps the muzzle blast throws stuff farther than I thought!
I keep reading of folks shooting the device which lends me to them placing it very far away wince IMHO all of them would be a LARGE target at 20 to 30 feet. I shoot a lot and while I think I am pretty good, if I set this out at 25 yards, it would quite possibly get destroyed. I would not be overly concerned at 100 yards with a rifle, but anything over about 20, open sights with a pistol is hard for these old eyes to see.
Goal: enhance the hobby of reloading and fool with the science of it and see what happens.
