My neighbors placed a BB gun target on the border between our properties. They shoot at it from their property. They miss sometimes, especially when they've been drinking or toking. I don't mind BBs occasionally going onto my property, and there's no place else they can put the target without there being risk to their cars or houses.
I've decided it's time to put a fence between our properties – not because of BBs, but because the neighbors are peeing on my lawn. I want to minimize potential injury if they fire a BB that hits (and possibly bounces off of) the fence.
What type of fence would you recommend?

You're being an exceedingly tolerant neighbor; perhaps a bit too tolerant - I expect that existing laws prohibit both of those actions by your neighbors. It's not neighborly of them.
Normal construction of a BB-trap target (which is essentially what you're asking your fence to do) is to angle it so that the BBs are deflected into the ground. To do that on your side of the line, you'll have to give up some of your land.
