If it worried me that much ,then I would build a concrete wall on my property high enough to protect my stuff. Then I would see if he would let me shoot there too !

I have a feeling if the guy dug a hole straight down a 100 yds deep they would still biotch.
What's a "military grade weapon" anyway?..........
Perhaps one that shoots a round substantially less powerful than a typical deer round.

I would not want a new neighbor to build a shooting range that is lined up with my house, where if a bullet goes over the berm it might hit my house. It is dangerous and her property value will take a big hit. Yep. All those here calling the lady crazy, how many would choose to move in to the far side of a berm of a shooting range themselves?

Dan, I assume that you check for accumulation of unburned powder in the baffle. (Just trying to be helpful.)

She has legitimate points, I'd be nervous too,
The noise, the safety issue, and her property value will take a serious hit.
"if it's so safe, why didn't he build it pointed towards his house"......
Hard to argue that fact. You did not see the video? Sure I did, tell me what I missed. The reporter walking down the face of the berm to start. The claim he is going to build it higher is good, even if he stops lower than his claimed 45 feet. A roof in front of his bench to deflect idiot high angle shots and there is no way they can hit her house without trying. Noise is a serious problem, but he is still legal.

What the nag needs to do is hire a excavator to cut her a range backing up to the been the neighbor builds.

You had asked if I had watched the video, Now I'm wondering if you watched it.... Still find it interesting the lack of common sense gun safety displayed here, and all the Kool Kids tripping over themselves trying to up their post count. My final question, once again, Your building your own rifle range in your small backyard, Are you pointing the range towards your own house, or away from it? I already know the answer.

If properly constructed does it matter? I ask because nearly all ranges are pointed at dwellings/businesses somewhere out there.

Jeez, guys, doesn't it make sense that what he meant to say was that he was going to add to the berm until it reached 25 feet?
Not adding an extra 25 on top of the current 20! That would be one hell of a berm!

Property owners have a right to the enjoyment and use of their land. In the event that another party interferes with that right -- for instance, a neighbor regularly plays his music at maximum volume late at night -- a property owner can sue the interfering party. If the intrusion is physical, a property owner may be able to sue under the legal theory of trespass. In the event that trespass laws do not apply, but there is still interference, a property owner may be able to sue under the theory of private nuisance. Talking to your neighbor about the nuisance is usually the best first step, since they may not fully realize the affects of their actions. While states may vary on their definition of a private nuisance, a plaintiff must typically prove the following elements: 1 The plaintiff owns the land or has the right to possess it; 2 The defendant actually acted in a way that interferes with the plaintiff's enjoyment and use of his or her property; and 3 The defendant's interference was substantial and unreasonable. findlaw.com
The key elements in human thinking are not numbers but labels of fuzzy sets. -- L. Zadeh
Which explains a lot.

My final question, once again, Your building your own rifle range in your small backyard, Are you pointing the range towards your own house, or away from it? I already know the answer. Let me start over... I mistakenly assumed you had some idea how ranges are built when there are concerns about bullets going over berms. The berm is already very tall. This is obvious from the reporter coming down the face of the berm into the shooting lane cut as the camera zooms out. That berm is higher than all but one range I have seen in AK and that is only because the berm is a mountain face. The overhead deflectors are common and assuming the landowner is going to get insurance on his property the insurance company will probably require it because they are VERY, VERY common. Yeah, I am going to point the range at my house so I can build the berm in my yard and deflect all the sound to the neighbors. (sarcasm, obviously) The crazy lady was also asking why he only dug the end toward her house down... obviously you only dig down one end, maybe raise the other to get those bullets to ground ASAP. And, again, did you actually see the reporter coming down the face of the berm into the shooting lane?

The problem with this is perception. Is it dangerous or does it just appear dangerous to someone. Who sets the boundaries to go by. That’s a hell of a dugout and I doubt any bullet will escape. The 50 cal could very well be a muzzle loader. I would not do this simply because of the hassles he’s gonna get. The woman will problably shoot holes in her own walls to get him shutdown. Ed k
