This made me think back to an incident where my sister in law had 3 spent cases (in one shooting session) go down the front of her shirt. She was wearing shooting glasses and a cap, but unfortunately...also had a "V" necked T-shirt on.
My Brother's new Kimber was spitting out brass nearly every direction (including straight back). Two cases hit under the rim of her cap, the last one hit her square in the forehead. In less than 100 rounds, three hot cases managed to find their way down the front of her shirt.
We tuned the extractor and ejector and put in a 22lb. recoil spring to solve the problem.
Kinda funny watching her dance though. It can happen to anyone, but in an anatomical sense.. the ladies create a "brass funnel" for themselves if they don't wear something close fitting around the neck. Thats about as delicate as I can put it.
Hot brass will "home in" on the collar of a shirt also. It doesn't take long to figure out it's laying right against your neck!
Oh well, it happens.
