The Georgia Gun Club, nice place. Not cheap, but comfy when the weather is inhospitable.

Senor(a)(ita) Tardigrade, welcome to the issue of thermal crossover whereby everything is approximately the same temperature. A hothands will not work well against the backstop that has been heated in the sunshine. On really hot days, what you need is a cold target (like a can of pop) that you can dangle from a target frame, ice cube you can rest on a cardboard ledge you tape to the target, etc.

I have steel silhouettes at my place. I just pick a portion of the head and see how well the bullet impacts. However, in the late afternoon, the steel target is often close to the same temp as the backstop, so I have to be careful with that.

The only time I shot there, a dude was shooting a 338 Lapua mag at 100 yards.

There's obviously more to this story.

338 Lapua mag in an indoor gun range, not pleasant for innocent by standers.

There's obviously more to this story.

It's not uncommon to see.

Experienced this myself, along with 50bmg.
