Ref your comment about the bullet going over the butts landing
in the danger area a gallery range template is reduced to take
into acount the stop butts and is about 2900 yds a 7.62 round
at optimum elevation will travel approx 4400 yds GALLERY RANGES
ARE NOT DESIGNED TO ALLOW BULLETS TO BE SHOT OVER THE BUTTS!
THE TEMPLATE IS TO TAKE ACCOUNT OF POP OVERS AND RICOCHETS
HENCE THE NEW NRA RULE AND INSISTANCE OF RIFLES BEING POINTED
AT THE STOPBUTTS WHEN CLOSING BOLTS.
It is a misconception that if you fire over the butts all will
be safe.
