Ranges are typically enclosed to some degree for safety which would have totally different acoustics to a big open area.
I’m talking about big outdoor ranges like 100-300m. You hear a BANG as the bullet passes overhead, then 1-2 seconds later you hear the sound from the rifle. If the bullet hits something soft like the earth banks on the range you hear that PEWWWW noise.
There are so many variables.
Eg what rifle x ammunition x physical location?

Also people have awful memories of actual events which are made worse by trauma, so you can only ever rely on these little specific details to a limited extent.
