First you ask a bunch of computer geeks on the internet. Second you do exactly as they say, I mean what could go wrong?

They make a special device you put the bullet in it, it goes flying pretty far, but you can point it towards the ground or something and then retrieve the bullet. You basically place the bullet in it and then pull the trigger, it's kinda like a drill.

I'm not familiar with such a round. I was curious and googled. I'd advise caution since many seem to be non-standard type 'bullets'. I.e., they have explosive charges in them.
