Very confined. In practice, (as my wife pointed out) as our gate is in the same line as our back door and
his gate, the guy could miss and one of these pellets could make it right into my house if the back door is open.

I'm staggered at the level of recklessness from a person of his age.
He's continued to shoot with his son right up until about half an hour ago so my not so subtle actions earlier have made no difference it seems.

I will be doing, there's no doubt about that.
Just hope I beat my wife to it - she's much less accommodating.
I hate possible show-down's. Why can't people just stop and think? Why does it not occur to certain people how ridiculously irresponsible they're being before it has to come down to finger wagging, however polite.
Ho hum.
