I shoot outdoors at the inlaw's farm. I will lay out a tarp on the ground to help collect ejected brass to be reloaded again. When working on load development I make note of and prefer loads that eject similar to average factory rounds. I am able to collect 99% of my cases this way. I also note if cases are ejected too far and land too far away to be easily found. This also helps tells me if I may be approaching excessive pressures. I don't like cases that land at my feet, hit the bill of my cap, etc either and will increase the charge to get them to land where I want.
