Dumb, but learned real quick to shoot at stuff that will allow the bullet to
penetrate.
Thanks for sharing that. It may help someone from shooting there eye out this Christmas
I can see where the dump would make a excellent target range though if upwind.
We used to have alot of fun shooting rats & bats on a cattle & grain farm. They would line up for is just after sunset and just before sunrise.
In the daytime someone would go in barn and give the silo top a slight crank to make the pigeons fly out for skeet practice. It was good for 6 or 7 cranks with 3 or 4 birds flying out each time.
