Regardless of whether richochets can be modeled, I'm not sure they'd add that much to the game due to the relatively simple damage models for ground objects.
About the only time I've heard of richocheting bullets intentionally being used to attack foes is when bullets are "skipped" off water or hard ground so that they "bounce" into the side of a lightly armored boat or the underside of an armored vehicle.
Since there are lots of variables you have to get just right (angle of attack, compressibility of the surface, bullet drop) and whatnot, it's probably more of a shooter's legend than a valid attack technique (unlike skip bombing, which is modeled in the game and which was regularly used during WW2).
