I think that ya'll are talking apples & oranges.

Your question is: in a WILDFIRE, will rounds popping off cause firefighters to back off my property?

The answers you are getting are: in a STRUCTURE fire (ie: house fire), firefighters find out you have ammo after it's dripping wet.

Having fought, and continuing to fight, both types of fire, my thought is: Yes, if firefighters hear rounds coming from your house they will move on. For your house to get hot enough for that to happen, it's gone anyway.

[deleted much longer answer about types and levels of 'firefighters']

Thanks for thinking about our safety!


PS: I'm grooving on the freezer!
