I remember sitting on a friends back porch. He just bought a Daisy Pump BB rifle and was shooting it at the fence. He was only putting one pump into the rifle and when he fired that BB would bounce off the fence and come right back at us. After a couple of shots I asked him if I could shoot it. I wanted to show him that penetration of that BB into the fence could stop the bouncing BBs. I pumped it up 5 times and fired at a target on the fence. No bounce. Showed him the BB stuck in the 4x4 post we were shooting at. (sorry, I can't spell ricochet, so I didn't try.) I handed the rifle back to him. He put one pump in it and fired. He said if it bounced that much with one pump he was not going to put more in it. I just went back inside and stayed away from the windows.
