I'm ***uming that many fly fishers are also involved in shooting sports. I apologize, but I need to know today

I have a Mark III pistol. I was going to buy one of those metal or iron targets with rotating paddles that resets itself after shooting all paddles.

My question; is it safe to shoot with a pistol? I'll probably only be 8 to 10 yards away and I'm wondering about ricocheting bullets. Should that be a concern?

Again, I apologize this not being a fishing question.
