One solution

The outdoor range in Lincoln, CA has screens that pull down and roll up, just like window shades. They're positioned between each bench and it's up to the shooters to pull them down to stop incoming brass.
I agree with just about everyone else: you go to the range, you need to expect to be hit by flying brass. Count yourself lucky (or well positioned) if you're not hit. Wear safety glasses, button your collar, wear a hat (coolie hats are great for deflecting brass) and long sleeves if you don't want to get burned. Besides, how cool is it to tell someone that burn on your face/neck/arm is from a hot rifle case! Very manly stuff.
