Hello devo, your concerns are certainly legitimate. I had something happen a couple of years ago that had me thinking the same way. In my case I was out in my backyard, the neighbors were shooting and I could hear rounds clipping up through the leaves in some of my trees. Turns out that they were shooting into the creek bed and the ricochets were going up past me. A visit from the sheriff was required as I didn't know exactly who was responsible or where these rounds were coming from. In my case the sheriff stopped by and when I took him around back into the yard a couple of rounds went whizzing by, no further explanation necessary. I eventually found out who was responsible and ignorance was more responsible for the situation than intentional neglect. My neighbor was actually appreciative as the shooters were nephews of his.

In your case, I believe that you might consider a friendly visit with these new neighbors and voice your concerns. They may not really realize that you feel endangered or threatened and once you say something they might change their shooting practices. At this time, if they are considerate, they may possibly show you their set-up and plan for preventing stray rounds from being an issue. If you are still nervous and if they don't heed to your concerns then the law may be the answer.

I live on 12+ acres and would love to shoot on my property, yet, I know that there is no safe way for me to pursue this due to the layout of the property and the proximity of my neighbors. They(your neighbors) have a responsibility to themselves and the others that live near them to use due diligence when it comes to the safety of others when they opt to shoot. If you don't take some sort of action you will not want to say "what if" in the event that something tragic did happen. Good luck and best regards, Allan
