The U.S. Forest Service is warning shooters to avoid the use of tracer bullets after a small wildfire broke out over the weekend on the Eastern Plains.
U.S. Forest Service spokeswoman Reghan Cloudman says fire crews were able to quickly put out the blaze and there was limited damage.
According to the Denver Post (http://tinyurl.com/9yjd6o5 ), nearly a dozen fires have been caused by recreational shooters on the eastern Colorado grasslands this year.
