I just realised. I am aware of one fatality which took place during a cadet shoot.
He was struck by lightning.
Which kind of puts the likelihood of the risk of a GSW in context.

No clue. It happened about 30+ years ago by a rough reckoning. My former OC was about 20 years older than me as a 21 year old CI, and she had been a cadet on the range when it happened, I’m now 32.

It was defo Cornwall, so that checks out.
