Hey all,
I need to get a new trap to shoot in my back yard. I haven't been using anything fancy, just something I threw together out of some wood scraps. I'd like to get some plans or ideas for a decent pellet trap for 0.177 that would be ok to stay out in the rain and elements here in the Houston area. It doesn't have to be fancy or even nice, just effective at stopping pellets and being kinda quiet so I don't bother my elderly next door neighbors.
Any ideas or suggestions on designs that have worked for you or that you have seen?
I also wouldn't mind buying one of those so called "bullet boxes" that have the metal sides and back construction with a sloped back. I'd like to quiet it down though. The problem I have found in all the ones I have looked at online is that they are small. I'd like to have one that I can hang up a standard sheet of paper with 4 separate targets in each corner and go to it.
Thoughts or links please. If you have any pics of some that you have made or bought, please post them so I can get some ideas.
Have a good weekend.
Larry
Thanks for your time.
