I know there are steel matches out there, and maybe this is a dumb question, but I'm going to ask anyways:
How does one shoot steel without having the round ricochet? Are certain rounds ok, and some not? Rifle? Pistol?
Reason I ask, is I acquired some 1/2" plate steel (8"x8") and was planning on shooting it at my range. I was telling a buddy about it, and he said, "Be careful of the ricochets." I have 60+ acres to shoot on, but I would rather be safe than sorry. Any experts on this? Thanks!!!
