Ed, my range is in the side yard, and I had a problem with about 15-20% brass loss in the grass. I've kept it mowed with the deck on the second lowest setting, and what was once a span of brass-eating foliage is making a transition to moss. As the proportion of moss increases, it's more like a green carpet with short nap. These days I might miss an empty or two when I pick up after shooting a couple dozen rounds, but often as not, I get it all back--plus some that went undiscovered before!
The optimal surface would be a wide alley of prepared, level ground with a putting green variety of grass on top.
