Firing Bullets in the House

She mentions a bunch of random firings around the house and “short, sharp explosions” that startled her every once in a while. Apparently, Elvis and his friends passed the time shooting bullets at man-shaped targets in the wellhouse. Becky was freaked out because her office was right by their shooting zone!
