Shrapnel. And the bullets would be tumbling (which is what they're designed to do at the moment of initial impact), which means they're worse for you if they do hit you.
Somebody opens up at you outside of ten feet, run like a mother--dodge, hop, move erratically. The average pistol-slinging idiot can't hit the broad side of a barn from the inside. Get outside of fifty feet as fast as you can. Then look for a corner to turn.
