Perhaps you could construct a cheap brass 'deflector shield' that would keep your brass in your immediate area. Simple cardboard type of deal.

Like RC, I shoot on public land and use a big tarp--works sweet.

I would also look at coated bullets over plated. The ones I buy are considerably cheaper than Barry's.

It ain't what you don't know that makes you an idiot...it's what you know for certain, that just ain't so...

Most people don't want to believe the truth~they want the truth to be what they believe.

Stupidity has no average...
