Thanks so much! I just made this with the recommended materials from Homey's; it's a few dollars more now, in 2023, but so easy, and I like that everything can be repurposed (including the tote lid, with some first aid) if I no longer need the trap. I plan to make the cardboard lid insert (17" by 11 5/8" for the 12 cf tote, friction fit) from the box in which my Colt Defender will soon be delivered, and draw a target on it. This is perfect for me to practice in my deep garage to avoid disturbing neighbors, as firing even air guns is illegal in my town.
I litterally just took a cardboard box and an old plush full suze comforter. I then just bunched the comforter up and jammed it into the box as tightly as i could wothout deforming the box. Then I shut the flaps and duck taped the box shut. I worked great and caught all my pellets.
I will say, make sure that the comforter is very plush and make sure it is old and you dont mind destroying it.
Great video. I built this exact same trap today. I got the larger bin but it's exactly the same make. This works amazing. Great call on putting the soft material on the front. I taped over the whole front with yellow duct tape and it looks brilliant. Great video. I'm firing .25 cal at it and I doubt it even penetrates 1/3 of the way through.
Try repacking the rubber mulch in a double bag from 50 pound rice bags. Since the rice bags are semi self healing due to the weave pattern from how they are made, they will keep the mulch better than the plastic packaging they originally were in.
Will have try that. Thanks.
Mulch is a great idea. I think old clothes folded up as tight as possible in a box would work too. The clothes will stop the pellet and it won't fall out like the mulch would. Thick truck tires would be a great material too. You could cut a thick used tire in half and use Flex seal to bind the tires together.
Thanks for making the video. I think I am headed to the hardware store now. And, nice collection of air guns! Some super sweet one's.
Nice job! Well done! Liked how you showed different cals, grains, and FPS!
That is a very good backstop, inexpensive, effective and does the job with no ricochet issues.
Love it.
Two years ago I did a mess when pretending to stop a .22 pellet going out a BT65 with a trap made with plastiline 10 inches width pack I used for a nitropiston rifle. Apart from the hole at wall, whole kitchen was full of plastiline blue dust. What an explosion. Going to try to find those materials here at my country. Nice video and thanks for sharing.
Im going to make a very similar one and im glad you used a few different powered air rifles including that big bore rifle kicking out 80 fpe ! Im glad because the Redwolf in .25 is 50fpe and my FX M3 is kicking out 80 fpe when tuned for slugs and knowing this trap works gives me confidence .
Thanks for sharing this video. I made this today and it worked perfect, I shot my Hatsan .30 Qe Carnivore at it and it stopped it completely, now i have an indoor range!
I shot a .22 caliber 800 fps lead pellet into a cardboard box with 12" of foam rubber. The pellet went through both sides. I tried this set up exactly but put 1"x4"x14.5" boards in the bottom. It's a little on the heavy side, but it works great! I haven't seen a stray pellet since. Thx!
That's exactly what I do, use rubber mulch. I put mine in boxes, always getting boxes from Amazon, but I've shot one to death for two years and it's still alive. I drag them around with me, one box is now 15 lbs from all the lead in it, lol. The mulch works great for stopping the pellets, it'll stop a powder burner. I make sure I don't let mine sit out and get wet, may fall apart from all the holes in 'em, lol.
Best design on the internet... Thank you, headed to Lowe's now.
SWEET!! I'm gonna have to try this!!
Thank you for this great idea.
Just went to Lowe’s and made one of these. I believe the trick to making sure nothing makes it through the back is to fill the tote with much, and then pack it down. Then, put in another quarter to half a bag. We’ll see how my theory works once my FX Wildcat comes in. Thank you for posting this.
that's a super idea I will be doing this
Another quick way to ensure all areas are covered inside that box cut a 3/4" horse stall mat from the Tractor Supply store. maybe double it up if needed. Since those rubber mulch will settle. I use those stall mats for my weight lifting platform when I do deadlifts in my garage, I pair it with 3/4" plywood underneath. They definitely dampened the sound and help protect my garage floor. I figure that will work on this configuration as well. Maybe a horse stall mats on the back, then some rubber mulch combo.
Great video I’ll be on my way to Home Depot tomorrow great Small bore bullit trap
Great idea thank you very much!
I made something similar but used shredded inner tubes. You will eventually shoot through the back when doing groups using heavy slugs
Amazing idea :) Thanks for sharing :)))
Good video thanks.
Awesome job thanks
I made mine from an computer monitor box filled with old clothes to damper the sound backed with a lot of old magazines , I mean a good packed bunch. It works like a charm
Great video thanks 👏👏👏
Genius !!
I bought that exact container last week and made a similar trap using towels and magazines. My only complaint is with the lid. It's brittle, so pellets knock out material instead of punching a small, neat hole.
Could be that the rubber mulch has more give than the towels and magazines. You are correct the lid is brittle. That's why I use cardboard as a replaceable face. My main thought on this system is the less expense and reusability. But yes the weak part is the lid. Thanks for sharing your experience and thoughts.
@@airgunnuub8741 When the original lid finally gives out, I may replace the center portion with some very thin hobby type board kinda like your cardboard. Will be swapping out the towels for mulch as well. That was a great idea.
i would run a piece of carpet over the top of the lid
I was thinking about building one of these, up till now I just cram a bunch of old clothes that we went to get rid of into a cardboard box and duct tape the heck out of it. A lot cheaper than building one of these and seems to work fine. So I'll probably just stick with doing that. Also with a box of clothing it's a lot easier to recover the lead if you're interested in that. I'm not but I would hate to try to separate lead out of river mulch
Thanks just what I needed.
sounds nice
I also want to make pellet trap and look on youtube for ideas lol. BB is easy, cloth can stop the bb, but no clue for lead pellet. I'm layering thick 1.8cm multiplex board and 4cm eva foam, then cardboard, then metal shilouette animals/circles for target.
I have bought my first airsoft gun and I feel like this is a good project for me
Murcia, cant even get the fpe any where close to this video in the UK
How’s this compare to a duct seal pellet trap? Does this have more stopping power?
The pellet trap works great but I'm impressed by how quiet all your guns are lol
I used heavy duty duct tape to reinforce the lid. Inside and out.
Do you think this would work with the CF Texan .457? Lol
The impact of the pellet seems so much quieter/silent than shooting into duct seal. Is that what others are experiencing?
What happens when the lid is no longer usable from pellet holes?
Will this work with a blunderbuss?
How long does this last? Will it containe high power airgun pellets? Will it spit out lead dust?
New co2 steel bb handgun, rated 310fps. I'm thinking this will stop the bbs from going all around the basement. Thoughts?
At 310fps, yes it would stop them.
As far as the plastic lid goes. When the plastic lid starts to bust apart go out and grab some campaign signs. That material is a great medium in between the lid and a target you are gonna attach to it.
I’ve been shooting at an old phone book or magazines, works great but get papers falling all over, pellets stay in the book thow haha
You're showing your age :-)
Yes, phone books work nicely. Since they hardly make phone books anymore, it's magazines and such.
Wondering if any of you are re-using pellets? Maybe even just for cheap air rifles? We used to use an old box with magazines in the bottom for airsoft and BB's. The shot was still clean and not distorted. Seeing how expensive some of the hunting and precision ammo is. Might be a good idea to make a trap to slow them down though different densities so they can be saved? Bad idea? I understand expensive rifle tolerances might be too tight to risk a used pellet. Maybe the skirts blow out or tear or damage the riffling? Just thinking out loud and want to know if everbody expects to throw out everything they catch.
Looks great but the lid is going to fall apart very soon with all the damage. Not much pre thought in this one.
Perfect.
You have a nice collection there, some are pretty expensive. Like most air gunners, you spend your money where it counts, on your guns.
For everything else you go cheap as hell!
I added 3/4inch wood back stop because i'm firing .22 Pellets and needed the extra protection.
Nice jammies.
Mine is just a cardboard box that gets replaced after several hundred rounds. It also works fine for tougher jobs at least up to 9mm. Or at least that’s what I’ve been told......
Use a lead plate 0.5 inch thick and be done with all your trouble. 😎
I brought a break barrel air rifle that shoot .177 at 1200fps will this stop it? Type air rifle is the F4
It should. I've shot 177s at it and it stopes it.
Ok many thx I've seen backstops stop a 800fps and a 900 but haven't seen anyone attempted a 1200 or at least confirm that it will
@@thewrightstuff7971 Air you sure you're reaching that number? Or is that the advertisement number on the box and site of the air gun you purchased? I ask because you can't believe what these companies say! If you watch his video and pay attention to the number's he is getting they vary it also depends on the kinda pellets and you're elevation. I'm in the mountains and my air rifles are supposedly rated for 1300 fps but I get around 875 average. Now at sea level I'd get better fps then I do at a higher elevation.
👍😉
great hack...do u think it will hold up to a .30 cal fx impact?? using jsb 44.75??
Thanks.
44.75 pellet going at 1000 fps is about 100 fpe.
I would like to think that it would stop it.
I don't have anything that shoots anything that powerful so i cannot say for sure.
Airgun Nuub a 22lr is pretty much the same as a 30 cal pcp. Try shooting it with one of those.
I just pack a similar container with a bunch of old towels.
When your cover gets blown to shit and it will ,are you able to buy just a cover?
cut your lid and place the cardboard in the hole
Is it good for 495 FPS?
I'd say so since he was hitting way above that with no shots making it through. 495fps is low compared to what number's he was getting at it around 800+ fps.
Would that be rated for .357 magnum?
Jim Kovac i don’t think so. Way less power then a .357 Magnum.
Ur kidding right?
Dis guy
Cant beat socks full of sand or even a sand bag in a tray
That'd be real messy indoors and real heavy outdoors (especially after it rained)
Nice outfit.
I do my best work in pajamas 😘
Yeah but what is zip tied to the bottom of the box, seems like large parts of the story are missing, other wise thumbs up. Devil in the details.
??? Nothing was zip tied to the bottom of the box. Why would he do that?
Cardboard box with old cloths will do. ... after 40 50 shots all that shit will fall out plastic everywhere wait of time
not dirty. then he fills the box with dirt. wtf
Do you own any real guns? Just curious.
"Mister, how do I get to Carnegie Hall?" "Practice, practice, practice."
IOW, rehearse before you make a fool of yourself! And, work on your video/audio skills.
thank you
