You always need a safe backdrop, even when hunting. If you haven’t got one, don’t shoot. 600 yards is about a tenth of what is seen as the potentially dangerous range around here. Hunting classes for obtaining a license set it in the ballpark of roughly 5km provided you’d shoot upwards in a 45° angle. Either you take precautions such as hunting stands with appropriate shooting distances, guaranteeing a safe backdrop via the ground or by having massive earth walls in the back.
