Back Stop

I am going to be making a steel backstop and and am not sure what the best tilt angle is. It will be 3/8" steel plate 5' high and 6' wide. What should the angle be to deflect the bullet down, I was thing about 20 degrees forward. The ends will have 1/4" plate from the top of the backstop straight down to form a right angle at the bottom.
I will be shooting at distance of 10 to 25 yards.
