Thanks for posting up Pus...nice to know no-one has died yet. Keep trying though.

After a CAPS match...there's LOTS of broken BBs (white ones) already. From the close ranges to the 500fps+ gas guns...if these things will break into shards, that's bad news for Brian's gym and all the barefoot martial arts guys that use it after us.

So far as ricochettes go...it's not rare to have someone shoot a window frame at point blank (I think the last one I caught was Betty's window frame shot out of a gas M4...right in the nuts). I've caught several high speed rebounds already RO'ing matches. We've all seen what happens when the backer boards are oriented to square...and those ricochettes are travelling the length of TTAC3 (down range 2/3rds...and bouncing back all the way to the firing line).

So anything to reduce the bounce...that's good for CAPS.

Field use...m'eh, whatever.
