I never shoot around people at the range. I try to go to the empty one so i dont have to wait for the dill holes that take 1 shot with a center fire, walk 200 yards to check it after just that ONE shot, come back, fire and do it all over again. And to top it off, its worse when you get a 70 year old man pullin that crap! But i also agree, i think they are just giving you the "amazed" look. I got that look a few times last september when i was hunting with my flintlock.
