can rr ties be used for bullets
The railroad tie idea will make a great backstop. Let me say that first. Something I might add is to mound dirt behind the ties, so that in the event a bullet should pass through, it wil help stop them some.It will also help support the ties from leaning one way or another over time.. It is my opinion that the bullets should not first hit something hard (e.g. railroad ties). If the bullets hit a hard surface first, there's a good chance for ricochet. Bullets need to first hit something that is soft and penetrable.
