I still thinkk a few layers of loosely wrapped, but tightly secured chicken wire would be enough to stop shrapnel, yet allow enough space so that the chamber pressure would be unable to rip the wire apart. If it's wrapped tightly the gasses can't escape between the pvc pieces, and will rip the wire mesh apart.
Small pieces might escape, but nothing big enough to hospitalize you. Unless you aren't wearing safety glasses.

Build a huge underground shooting range and then remote fire the gun from above ground?
