Bouncing/Not bouncing isn't an SPF issue.  It's an operations issue.  With the 
limited exception of to verified sending addresses (e.g. SPF Pass, but 
bounced for other reasons), no one should send bounces.  The designed 
behavior is to reject the message during SMTP, so there is no bounce 
backscatter.
