I noticed a huge change in the vegetation on the mountain that serves as the back stop at Ben Avery. I learned that it was caused by a bullet several years ago. I would think that it a rare event, but with the number of people shooting now a days, and dry climate, I think it's a valid concern. I would never support a ban or agenda that would limit all shooting to a range though. Interesting topic.
