Crazy scary, but I have trouble believing the actual bullet came back and hit him. Perhaps it was some shrapnel from the target that broke loose when the bullet hit. For the bullet itself, to turn around and come back exactly back from where it began would be pretty hard unless you shot it at a specially designed spring, that absorbed the energy and ejected it right back. But I dunno, anything is possible. ---

bullet probly fragmented on impact from hitting something. but that is the sound of a ricochet…i know that all to well
