I forgot about my T/Cs. With no ejection,you don’t even have to bend over to pick up any brass.I find it very easy to find the brass from my G2 Contenders and Ruger #1s.

[Off topic] Dave,your ID says you're in the "Big Valley". Stockton was my home town, lived in Manteca, for 15 yrs or so. Escaped CA, in '94. now near Tulsa.I remember when I still had several SKS carbines in the safe that they would consistently pop ejected cases off the range's sheet metal awning with enough force to dent it. The all-time worst was probably the 30-06 Colt-Thompson autorifle, a barely-delayed blowback action that reportedly hurled cases with enough force to embed them in hardwood.
The best is easily my Wehrmannsgewher Mauser 98 single shot. The bolt face is oversized for the rim on the 8.15x46R, and the extractor doesn't grip tight enough for the spent case to make it to the ejector. Opening the bolt just leaves a fired case on the follower within the action, ready to either pluck out with my fingers or turn the rifle to the right and dump it out and load the next. Very polite!

Yeh, and driving on 99, past the winery, and the feed yard...Hope OK is treating you ok. I haven't been through Manteca in decades -- I mainly associate it with the smell from the old Spreckels sugar beet processing plant, which shows how long it has been.
Or just lay it or a tarp on the ground for them to land onThat works but use a canvas one. A cheap plastic tarp melts from the hot brass...
