I mean, academically speaking, what are the chances of lone actors or small local cells getting caught doing that kind of sabotage? Could a .308 penetrate a refinery? Would that do enough damage to put it out of commission, and how long? Hunting rifles are cheap and can shoot very far. People could just take a pot shot from a hill and then get back in their car and be on their way.
This would clearly only work for a little while before security is massively beefed up, but that's a real cost effective trade. Pretty much for one box of ammo we could increase the security costs by tens of millions per year across the country.

In a real sense they would not survive the kind of violence frequently done to our local schools. No one is talking about things going that far through.
Cause even a few big dents would require a safety inspection, costs would eventually add up. Plus, what are they odds they do the expensive work of foxing things well? They have to pay for increased security. The government would eventually step in but I dunno how much efforr tthey would really be willing tk put out.

Academically speaking of course
Fascinating!
