Well, when I was in the USN and we had to qualify with the M-1 in boot camp up at Pendleton, the targets were manned by another unit in the pits below.. One guy took a ricochet right off his helmet.. Left a nice dent..
This was back in Jan. of '67.. Wonder if they still do it that way?
Nebraska Army Guard still did that in the 80's out at the Holdrege range, I believe.
