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.

Kill a hog. Save the planet.
