Yikes is right....I sometimes wonder if guys,General term,think these  rounds magically fall to the ground once they don't hit the target or even go through it. Glad no one was killed.

Reminds me of the guy who shot at a deer, missed, and had his 300 WM bullet hit a trailer with a toddler inside.  He killed the poor child.  It wasn't intentional, but he broke a lot of laws designed to prevent something like that from happening.  He went to jail.  I think it was near Wolf Lake about 3 years ago.  He was from the city.

I said this in the other thread about the same incident, there really is no excuse for things like this. Walk around the land you plan to hunt before the season and see what might be around and where houses and roads are. At least drive around the area and locate things like that. I still say boots on the ground and get to know the land as mush as possible. Too many hunters just stop along the road or in a parking area and go for it.
