Not that many drones get shot down, and when it happens it’s so noteworthy that the one doing the shooting down can’t actually believe his luck. And they usually use shotguns for that, using rifles is really just 100% pure luck.
As per the speed, on their way down current (very cheap) drones are already way too fast for anyone to try and shoot them, the taking down (when it rarely happens) usually takes place when the drone is in the middle of a hovering pattern. Were the drones to always go at full speed (100 kph, 300 kph, it doesn’t really matter) then the operators controlling them would have no way to tell which is which on the ground.
