Hey there,
Not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I have about 100-125 yds of space in my backyard to shoot. The problem is that the land is flat for about 75 yds. and then slopes upward for the remainder. It makes for a good backstop.
I would like to place some sort of steel target at the end of that 100yds and the target would basically end up being on a hill.
My question is that since most steel targets are angle downward, will the impact from what I shoot increase my chances of a ricochet vs. shooting on perfectly flat land.
If I shoot a swinging type target, would that matter? If I shoot a pepper popper type, would that matter?
Thanks for your help.
