- How to make the best pellet trap in the world so that you can recover and recycle your lead. It is good for the environment and it can save and/or make you money also.
A great way to use all of those Christmas sweaters that I have never worn. Thanks for the inspiration.
That would be a great way to use them. I don't like Christmas sweaters. I worked at a place once and you were required to ware one of them the week of Christmas. So I had to purchase 5. Never liked them since. thanks.
Hey Aaron! First of all, you are a true patriot and cool dude! :) As far as pellet traps, I came up with one a few years ago that has served me very well! First, I decided on a box that was readily available and free (medium sized flat rate boxes from post office). These boxes are 14 inches by 12 inches. Then, I had a local metal fabrication shop cut me a piece of 14 gauge steel (which is approx 1/16 inch thick) just SLIGHTLY smaller than the boxes. I mean like 1/8 inch smaller so there are not gaps. The plate goes at the back of the box, and in front I put pairs of denim jeans I buy at my local Goodwill store. I usually get kids sized - it makes it easier to get just the right amount of material in the box without having to cut anything. This solution works GREAT! Even an errant shot that goes very close to the edge will too penetrate because of the plate, and the jeans slow the pellets enough to prevent a lot of splatter. I have shot thousands of rounds into my traps and probably gone through 8 or 10 boxes, and have never had one penetrate. There are some dents in the plate, but nothing has come close to going through. It gives me great piece of mind. Anyway, love your content and hope you are doing well and staying healthy. :)
the idea of the 1/16 inch metal is a good safety precaution. All your ideas are great and I recommend them. Thanks for watching and for the great ideas. Sorry this is so late but I just saw your comment. Best of luck.
@@aaroncantrell8819 Thanks Aaron! 👍
Great for BB's too... I have a bag of my son's old T shirts for stuffing the box, works great, it's quiet and best of all it's just about free.😁👍
Arron, thank you so much for showing how to recycle pallet debris. This way will work to me since I am also a angler.
Glad to help and happy that you continue to watch. Best wishes.
Excellent video! I've been making trap boxes like yours for a while now.
I shoot BBs. Instead of old clothes and rags, I use rubber mulch for landscaping. I use all different sizes boxes that I would normally throw out. I take the box and depending on the size, I put sandwich bags or big 1 and 2 gallon freezer bags into the box and fill the bags with the rubber mulch.
Then I duct tape it up. Sometimes I'll tape the whole box on all sides.
That helps stop the box from shredding up.
Then I buy cheap cheap cheap glossy spray paint usually something bright and give it two coats.
Then I slap the shoot and see targets on and fire away.
Like you, I've left mine outside and it's rained a ruined the box. The tape and paint make it somewhat waterproof.
Kitty litter boxes are perfect for this. The square one's with the handles are great.
If you can get or save the boxes, I buy the cheapest junk kitty litter and drop the whole bag right in. I don't even open the bag because it helps stop the litter from spilling out inside the box and when it does from being torn up, it stays in the box so there's no mess. I left one outside and not covered for almost 3 YEARS!!!!
Anyway, great video and lots of good tips.
Thanks for sharing 👍🤠
Duct tapping the box is a great idea and using paint is a great idea. All your ideas are very good. Thanks.
I have the same pellet trap, except I cut out the front center of the box and desined it so I can slide standard paper size targets in and out of if. On top I, used one strip of duct tape with each end taped on the side and pinched it on top/middle and it act like a handle for easy one hand carrying. I have a coupld of hard cover books behind the clothes also.
I use sticky splatter targets but they are expensive. So I love the idea of inexpensive paper targets as well as the handle. I am going to setup one right away. Thanks for the great ideas and for watching.
I’ve been making those type of traps and recovering lead since 1963. I never thought to use old clothing because cloth was more useful to me as rags. I worked as a furniture finisher. Never had enough rags for that mess. Now that those days are behind me (thank God!) I have an abundance of old worn out work clothes. Perfect timing. Thanks for the idea.
Here is something I just discovered while making my latest trap. It’s a big one and a pain to carry, so I made a handle by sticking one long piece of good duct tape from one side to the other, with a big loop above (like a big C) . Just take the looped part and fold it in half ,longways, so the sticky parts stick together. A piece of tape across each side for reenforcement and presto, a handle. It takes about two minutes and you can carry two traps with one hand. Don’t you just love shooting airguns?👍 I’m enjoying your videos. Special thanks for the Chinese compressor video. I need to get one of those .
You must be making big targets because I can carry my small box without effort. However the idea of making a handle. I am going to put one on right away. It sound like you may be retired like me. If so there is plenty of time to do the shooting we love so much. The Chinese also make a great gun in the P15. Thanks for watching.
I built the same box design but I used rubber mulch from Lowe's with a 3/4 inch plywood bottom. Works great. Los Angeles
I did not know that rubber mulch was a thing. I will look into getting some. Also the plywood bottom is a great safety idea. Thanks.
Thank you so much. Not only is this a great idea (I too have old clothes and cardboard boxes aplenty), but, after watching many videos to get some ideas for a pellet trap (.177), you are the first and ONLY one who ever mentioned the environment, the danger of lead dust on your hands and elsewhere, and the importance of cleaning up after shooting. Easy and sensible advice.
Thanks for watching. I am glad I could be of help. Beat wishes.
AMAZING VIDEO Arron!!!!!! I am an avid fisherman and airgun enthusiast and these ideas are gold. Thx for all you do! 💪🏾
Thank you for watching.
great idea Sr. , I got lots of old jeans I was going to get rid of and you just saved me a target lead trap that is quiet and lead recovery ,etc. , I will definitely be using your idea !
I hope it is working well for you. Thank you for watching and best of luck.
Thanks for this very informative video, Aaron. I've been using ballistic rubber blocks for my indoor shooting but they cost money and it would be very difficult to recover any lead from them once you've loaded them up. Another negative side of using the blocks is if you're shooting a lower velocity air pistol you sometimes get a bounce back. I'm going to build one of these today because I've already got all the materials.
I am sure you are going to love it. Also if you put multiple targets on it and clean it regularly you will actually find pellets that you could shoot again. Especially .177. Thank for always being here. Best wishes.
Thanks Aaron i really don't know how you come up with these ideas another way to save a 💵 keep the videos coming
Thanks you for continuing to watch. best wishes.
Great idea. I have been using a metal .22 rim fire bullet trap which draws the attention of my neighbors. And the pellets flatten and scatter into many small pieces. Thanks for emphasizing the importance of safely handling the spent pellets.
With this system sometimes the pellets look as though they can be used again if they do not hit each other as they enter the target. Thanks for watching.
i used your idea it works great!hope your family is dioig well.thanks my air brother.
Thank you for watching. Stay safe
What a genius idea. I just built mine today,works flawlessly. Thanks for the tip.
Glad I could be of help. Thank you for watching.
Thanks for that idea! Works like a charm. I put a thin metal sheet behind and arround the sides for shooting inside. Take care, be safe. :)
I have shot my stuffed box both inside and out for years and never had a pellet come close to exiting the box. I have one inside just for chronoing my pellet speed and i shoot at it point blink and after 100s of pellets no exits. I think the steel is not needed nd is over kill. Thanks for watching.
@@aaroncantrell8819 Can one really have too much steel? ;) Good luck to you in the next few days! Stay safe!
Thank you Aaron, Really enjoyed your video. Looks like a great neighbour friendly set-up and also a money saver. Wish you all the very best.
Just finding this. I built my trap similar to yours - for free.
12x18x18" amazon box filled with old telephone books (remember those?) collected from my neighbors and thick books (old dictionaries and text books).
I don't plan to recycle, so the trap works perfect for me. Just discard the books that get badly chewed up from the pellets.
I also use a backstop of 4ft x 8ft 1/4" plywood covered with a scrap piece of Berber carpet - solid stop for all the cals I shoot.
I've been using this trap for for almost 10 yrs now and only had to rebuild/clean out once in that time.
Another great Video......Thanks Aaron.... just made a pellet trap and it works great....Thanks again !!!
Glad it works for you. If you shoot at it with a .177 at over 30 yards you will find that the pellets are reusable is they don't contact each other. Best of luck.
Great video! A lot of useful information and advice. Thank you! 👍
Thanks for this ......I've been using this box method ever since I've started shooting airguns. I never purchased a metal pellet trap. I recently had plans to purchase a couple of metal traps thinking that I would upgrade my range. I like the understanding of containing the led particles with the cloth that I have been using. I'll stick to the box's...........Thanks
I know a guy who have pellet traps in his back yard and the sound is just too loud for my neighbors. I love the quite of the box. Thanks for watching.
This was one of very few videos worth watching. Great info!
Thank you and thanks for watching. Best wishes.
Hi from the UK! Some great ideas there. I use a box with the back and sides lined with cut off bits of carpet stuck to the box then I have 3 squares of carpet hung from the top so when the pellets hit the carpet can move to absorb the impact! Forgot, the back is angled so if anything ever gets that far, never has up til now, it will fall downwards! Every now and again I can lift the squares of carpet out and brush any pellets out with a stiff brush! This has worked fine with my old BSA Airsporter .22 for some time now. I think it may be a bit noisier than yours though? Cheers, Take Care and Shoot Safe.
Thanks a bunch for this video. I was puzzling about what sort of pellet trap to build, and you convinced me with this idea. I used a bunch of material from old pants since they typically make poor rags. It's working great.
Glad it worked. Thanks for watching.
Brilliant video Aaron. The most sensible one I've watched about indoor pellet traps. For most of the others I've seen you need to have £££$$$thousands in tools and professional carpentry skills. Thank you Sir from England 🏴
Glad to help. Best of luck.
Thanks for the tutorial, very informative.
Thanks! I hope all is well in Trinidad.
@@aaroncantrell8819 We are hanging there. Doing the needful and what not. I'm waiting on correspondence from the post letting me know that the package has arrived. Our postal system is as slow as continental drift on a good day, but add in the corona virus and its like a Prius trying to tow building.
oh and i recycle all lead i mold pistol bullets the molds cost me about $40 check how expensive the molds for pcp slugs are really not affordable in comparison maybe one day keep up the good work
I understand that the slug and pellet molds are pretty expensive. So I will be making fishing sinker forever. Thanks for watching.
When I was a kid my uncle used to melt lead and make the fishing weights a good video and a good use thank you 🙂
Your father was a smart man. Thanks for watching.
Thanks Aaron. I will be using this method; the way I was doing it was very messy. And I was just gonna fill the box with all kinds of cloth...the tip about NOT using towels is something I hadn't thought about. I also use the lead for fishing...mold my own bass jigs.
It is messy if you shot at the same hole over and over. I have six areas I shoot at the that takes care of me messy problem. Thanks for watching.
Great idea ! I’ve been using a box filled with magazines and paper books which is quite messy . Thanks Aaron !!!
Thanks for watching.
Thanks for the info I'm gonna make one for my 457 big bore air rifle. I hope I have enough jeans 😂
instead of clothes get you a bag of rubber mulch it will be much easier to recover your pellets and will stop 22lr if the layer is not too thin also when you shake the box it will move around and refill the voids if you even have any just my 2 cents
I have 2 pellet traps made with rubber mulch. 10 times better than cloth...
That sounds like a great idea. I will look into that technique in the future. Thanks for the information and for watching.
I like to use rubber bark chips in my box, easy to remove pellets. I like your idea of cutting out behind circle targets 💪
Sound good. Thanks.
The scrap yard would love the poured lead if you wanted to sell it . Just another idea! great vids.
Good video! Simple and it looks pretty effective.
Alright Aaron it's dave from England thanks for passing on all your good ideas and money saving tips .it's all good stuff to us newbies. I like that little pot you use to melt the lead in .I've never seen one that you plug in before very handy tool .have you tried a brocock compatto sniper hr before do you think they are any good I've been thinking of getting one someone is selling one close to where I live would like your opinion
Thanks again for another good video keep them coming Dave in England
If the price is right I would get it. I have not shot one but VerminHuntersTV has showed that it is an accurate and well made gun. Check him out if you haven't yet. I hope all is well in England. Thank as always.
That is WAY easier, cleaner and cheaper then Electrician putty! Awesome job & thank you
Thanks you and thanks for watching.
wow that was coool i will do that pellet trap when i can it's the best and so cheap and i can get my pellets back so woww thank you 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
If you are shooting .177 cal over 30 yards you will be able to shoot the pellets again if they don't contact each other as they enter the target. I have even reshot .22 and .25 cal that I shot out to 50 yards and beyond. Thanks for watching.
@@aaroncantrell8819 omg! really use them again and again hell yeahhh thank youuuuu 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Thank you for this! I believe it is the worlds best pellet trap! Kudos on this video all the way 'round!
Thanks for watching and best of luck.
Thanks for the video. Learned a lot from you!
Thank you and thanks for watching.
I wish I had seen this video a few years ago..lol! would've saved a lot of money.lol. Best airgun video!
Thanks for watching anyway.
Great idea, thanks. I hate the idea of leaving a bunch of lead in the yard as I’m in a fairly urban area.
You can remold the lead into pellets again as well. I’ll just put mine in a tin in the garage for SHTF 😊.
Now this was a fun video!😎 well I am building one or two for sure! Here in Washington state all fishing is closed for now,so it is a shooting in the yard only!
Cheers
Dick
The Governor just announced that their will be a lifting of restriction on boats, golf and a few other things on Monday. Can't wait. Thanks and good luck.
Great idea! Never thought that would work but you’re shooting harder hitting and better hardware than my Gamo Swarm Whisper 10x .22... thanks again this is huge to a new air gunner! You’re awesome bro 👊
The pellets will only penetrate about a 1/3 of the way. It works great and is so quiet. Thanks for watching.
Thank you for such an informative video covering so many subjects that are related to shooting pellets and shooting in general while keeping harmful toxic metals away from yourself and the environment and still have fun shooting and fishing.
Like you my two favorite things are shooting and fishing. Thank you for watching and commenting.
@@aaroncantrell8819 I made several with your instructions and they work really well. Cutting out the cardboard front and placing a paper front and sticker targets is the best recommendation, it prevents a mess from happening inside when you clean it.
@@Kcrunchymunch That is a good idea. I will try it. Thanks for watching.
Brilliant idea Aaron, I've got a bag full of old t-shirts, towels, cloths and the like. I'll build me one o these tomorrow morning - got a new Diana Panther 31 this week and a Crossman 1077 coming in tomorrow so I'm gonna need one o these big time! :)
Thanks for the idea. Cheers
You have good taste in guns. I had a Diana Mod. 34 for 0ver 15 years and I gave it to my friend 5 years ago and he is still shooting it at yard pest today. I also had the Crossman 1077 repeater. I gave it to my little nephew and he still shooting it. I was hoping someone would make a conversion kit that would allow it to be converted into a PCP. Thanks for watching.
Thanks for this. I'm a new air gunner and this is great! I feel alot better about being to recover the pellets.
I have purchased several pellet traps and this is by far the best I have ever had. Thanks for watching and best of luck.
Mr Cantrell this was awesome to watch! Your sharing is amazing.
Thank you so much for watching.
Nice and simple, thanks man
Thank your for watching. Best of luck.
Aaron, thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. Saved me a lot of $$$! All the best.
Glad I was able to help. Best wishes.
Well Done Young Man.
Enjoyed your little idea's.
Keep making videos! You are my go to guy. I made one of these as soon as I saw the vid! No “Thwaak!” From the pellet hitting wood.
Thanks you and thanks for watching. Sorry I just saw your comment. Best of luck.
This is a terrific idea.
It is very quiet when target shooting in the back yard. You will love it. Thanks.
Keep yourself busy (and out of mischief) 🤣🤣🤣 thanks for a great video!!!
It is not easy to stay busy being in many ways restricted from other outside activities. However I will try to stay out of mischief. Thanks for watching and for the good advice. Best wishes.
I'm making a trap now! Awesome idea! Thank you!
Glad to be of help and it also works great on arrows if you shoot a bow just make the box bigger. Thanks and best of luck.
Great idea, im gonna keep my steel backing. Put maybe half as much clothes in my 12x12 box.
Hi @aaroncantrell, I wanted to know that I used your idea of taking a box and putting old clothing / cloth in it as filling. Well, I gave it an addition because I didn’t have that many rags hanging around to fully fill the box, so I made this addition. I went to the store and bought the cheapest disposable sponges I could buy, like 10 for 75 cents and also disposable wash cloths. I assembled this insides / backing in the box this way. The bottom of the box / first layers were two packs of sponges. Then I did 3 layers of the disposable cloths, then on top a large old towel. The gun I am using is a Brocock Compatto Sniper XR FAC, and at even high power of 18 ft / lbs setting the pellets are not even getting to the sponges, at a shooting distance of about 10 yards. I think when the pellet impacts the target box, there is so much energy absorption with the sponges that the pellet just deenergizes. So for like $2.00 I got a very effective reusable target backstop, and I have shot 100s of pellets using the same guts for the most part minus a new towel and first layer of disposable towels. Thanks for your idea, it is great, and I thought it valuable to share mine with you and others.
That is a good idea I would have never thought of packing the box with sponges and paper towels. That is a great option. Thanks for the information and for watching. Sorry I just saw your comments.
aaron cantrell thanks for the thumbs up on my idea and no worries getting back to me because I know you get a lot of comments. One are one of the great people on RUclips.
@@Blckpaw Thanks!
Great Idea for a pellet trap, The duct seal solution makes it very difficult to recycle the lead, this seems better.
I like it also because I shoot inside the house a lot and this ensures that no lead dust gets into the air. Thanks for watching.
Excellent idea and video. I have tried a few options but non allowed me to reclaim my lead. Aaron, you remind me of me, I do not throw any clothing away either. I always can use it out in the garage helping clean up what mess I have made. Cheers!
You are right. I have a box of old clothes for cleaning also. Thanks.
Great job sir,,,definitely your fan from Algeria 🇩🇿 ❤️
Hi, you are my first viewer from Algeria. I have added you to my world map. Thanks for watching.
I've looked at numerous DIY pellet catchers, and I like this idea the best! Thanks! I wanted one that I could throw together fast, with materials that I already have. Using the box bypasses the need to saw, screw, & glue together wood & other various materials. You don't need anything fancy to catch pellets, as long as it gets the job done, right? Thanks again, for the great idea! 👍👍
Thanks you Aaron! You just saved me a bunch of time and cost of building something out of wood.
Glad I could be of help. Thanks for watching.
@@aaroncantrell8819 built it this morning while I was on a phone meeting. This evening I gave it a try and it works great!
@@UWMitch You are going to love it as it works better than any store bought backstop and it is much quieter. Best of luck.
I do the same card box frame and layers of old tee shirts the stronger your gun is you need more layers of tee shirts also use a center punch to reshape some of the deformed skirts I reuse almost 85 percent of my saved pellets I leave the top of the card box open so I can put in or remove the tee shirts padding to retrieve the pellets
Good idea👍👍👍
Thank you for watching.
I love your channel so much. Been looking at the p15 again. Considering getting the new p770 pistol they make now. Looks great and I figure would pair well with the p15. Will be making one of these boxes. I know I can use it.
I have not seen the p770 but I have shot the p750. I could not hit a softball at 15 yards. I guess pistol are just too hard for me. I wish you all the luck. Thanks for watching.
What a great idea! Thanks for sharing
I just checked out your channel. The trapping idea is a great one and if it is ok I will copy some of your ideas. I also like your .22 cal Benjamin Fortitude videos. I have added your channel to my list and I will be watching and will try to promote it in the future. Thanks for watching
@@aaroncantrell8819 Thank you! Feel free to use anything you can from my videos.
I've used exactly the same thing for years - nothing better. I sort my used pellets out and the ones that aren't damaged I re use for plinking tin can with my Beeman P17 where accuracy isn't that important.
Thanks for sharing! Really effective way to build a target/pellet catcher for zero money!
Aaron, Polo? Seriously. Man I'm coing over to confiscate your pellet trap clothes and give you my old beat up clothes lol
Seriously though staying with my mom-in-law in Az in the winter I noticed she had a box of old lady clothes and Jean's already packed up for goodwil perfectly. That's when I discovered this neat little pellet trap trick. I've found Jean's and linen work best. If you don't have enough throw away clothes you can go to the Goodwil
I find that garage sales are better for low price. If you stop by during the final hours of the sale you can usually get enough clothes to make two or three big traps for as little as a few bucks. Most of my clothes come from my kids who are grown now but still growing. So I just collect their old clothes. Thanks for watching.
Study linin, it's the best clothing to wear. Valuable for health.
@@senatorjosephmccarthy2720 Thanks for watching and for your comment.
Great Video Much appreciated thanks for the great info!
Looks just like my pellet trap!
Very interesting,and entertaining thanks.
Thank you for watching.
Great idea
Very interesting I will try this, thank you
Awesome video. First time seeing this channel, and looking forward to checking out the rest of your videos!
Thank you and that for watching. I hope you continue to like my videos. Best of luck. Sorry this is so late.
I have steel trap with angled plate and its much easier to remove, but yes its loud. On the other hand if you want to go the quiet route i recommend same steel trap, but stuff it with old newspaper. After it starts to ding, just remove the shredder paper with pellets and throw it into a bucket of water. Lead will go into bottom, and you can scoop up the paper from water surface. I recast my lead into bars, just for cool factor :)
Nice idea but a lot to go through with the news paper and water idea and using it inside will mean that lead dust is in the air. I make sinkers for me and my friend and family and they love it. Thanks for watching and best of luck.
VERY NIC. thanks.
Thank you and thanks for watching.
Haha I just cleaned mine out 2 days ago. I use a huge cookie sheet. Sweat pants and sweat shirts work great
I gets so much led every time I clean it. I have given led sinkers to all my friends and I still have lots of pellets to melt down. I guess I shoot too much. Best of luck.
I have bin using this style for 15 years if you wrap box in packing tape that helps with the rain
I have been using duct tape which is much more expensive so I will use packing tape in the future. Thanks for the idea and best of luck.
Hello. I was thinking about doing a trap using mashed rubber from tyres. This idea makes easier recycling all that lead. Thanks for sharing. Definitely won’t do that part of melting lead at home. Apart from making more contact with lead, it is demonstrated that continuous contact with that hot metal exposes you to a minimal radiation dose , enough to make some people to have cancer. I would leave that part to those have protection and a factory suited for that process.
This is a great idea 👍
Thank.
Great information. Thank you for taking the time and effort to make these videos.
Thank you for watching and commenting. Best wishes.
Looks like a very interesting concept. I’ll try it out today. Thanks for the inspiration my brother.
Works better than others pellet traps I have purchased because it is quiet and when used indoors will contain the lead dust unlike metal traps. Thanks for watching.
I tried this device and it works like a charm, I love using it for sighting in the scopes. Thanks
Thanks again Aaron, another great video.
Thank you for watching.
I'll bet old bed sheets would work well. What if you shot into sand then sifted out the pellets from the sand?
That would work but be very heavy to move from place to place. I think sand would get imbedded in the pellet and create a problem in casting process also. But it is a great idea as a trapping material. Thanks for watching.
Great idea! Thank you for sharing.
Simply genius ! I will make my own... I have not checked your other videos yet, what material would you use as a backstop behind the traps on my veranda ? I was thinking hanging "ballistic nylon" . I own a 1200fps airgun .177 Cheers from MARTINIQUE
If the trap is at least twelve inches and stuffed tightly with cloth no pellet will ever exit it. I have shot hundreds of .177, .22 and .25 into it and never found a pellet more then 6 inches deep. I have added ;you to my world map as a friend in Martinique. Thanks you for watching. Sorry I just saw your comment.
Very informative l thanks for sharing this knowledge.
Wife, "Honey, have you seen my heavy terri bath robe...the large thick one?" Aaron, "You talkin bout that big pink one?" Wife, "Yea...that one." Aaron, "Nah.....I hadn't seen it in a long time." 😂 Awesome idea. Fixing to make me one now.
Thanks for this Aaron, I'm going to make me a good size one for outdoors.
You will love it. Thanks for watching.
Also if you are going to leave it out all the time be sure to punt it in a plastic bag, completely cover it with tape or put something over it to keep out the rain and it will last for months. Best of luck.
@@aaroncantrell8819 Ok sir, thanks.
I do the same thing works well!
Job well done!
Thanks you for watching.
Love this idea, do u think this design would stop pellets from big bore pcps like the 357 bulldog?
I was just about to make and buy a collector til I seen your video. I need that melting pot and a mold.
Lead has such a low melting point that it can be melted easily with an iron skillet and the mold can be found on eBay. Thanks for watching.
Great job and presentation Aaron just subscribed from Detroit Marty
Hi Marty, thanks for watching and subscribing. Are you a PCPer? Best of luck.
After i got my first airgun recently, I so regretted throwing away old clothes or giving away to goodwill. Could have had 3 or 4 pellet traps.
AWESOME VIDEO MY BROTHER FROM ANOTHER MOTHER !!! LOL . YOU CAN ALSO RELOAD THE CHEAP SHOTGUN SHELLS WITH THE RECOVERED PELLETS ! GOOD IDEA ON MAKING SPLIT SHOT TOO , HERE IN LOUSY-ANA , PELLETS AND FIREARMS ARE USED TO SHOOT GARFISH OUT OF THE WATER ,THE FISH TURN UPSIDE DOWN AND FLOAT WHEN YOU SHOOT THEM ,YOU JUST SCOOP THEM UP ,CLEAN EM AND COOK THEM ! REALLY ENJOYED THE VIDEO !
Can you direct me to any videos of people using pellet guns to shot fish. That sounds exciting. I think I am going to look into how I can do it. Thanks for watching.
@@aaroncantrell8819 i never seen anyone on youtube doing it , but imagine going to a small river or large one ,the ideal thing would be a bridge barely off water , you see these garfish swimming ,they love to swim on top or near surface , when they are shot ,they float upside down and you just scoop them up ,we use to spear them too with gaffs , i use to go to different locations and kill snakes too ,imagine being in a place where you can sit comfortably and wait for the snake heads to pop up ,and then you blast them ,to keep in practice i do most of my shooting in lakes,rivers ,bayous, all bodies of water ,there is always leaves,sticks ,all kinds of things in them ,i think its the perfect way to set scope at longer distances ,you can see where your pellets hits because of water , it is my personal favorite way to get out and burn a few hours target practicing ! . to me now just shooting in back yard is boring ,do yourself a favor my friend ,find some different bodies of water and go target practicing ,its so much more fun , especial at 100 to 300 yards !!! i have noticed that at about 500 yards ,you need to point rifle 45 degrees in air to go that distance ,its amazing how water helps ,to about 150 yards ,i shoot 1 to 3 inches above target to reach that distance , this is also the best way to figure out your elevation when using open sights ,and with scopes it shows you exactly how far you can shoot something because your scopes can only go so high ! try the water buddy ,you want regret it ,you can fish while you target practice too !! sometimes if im catfishing , i will throw a few lines in while i target practice !
@@rick31869 , except it puts lead in the bodies of water, and at an eatable size. Please stop doing that.
@@rick31869 I was talking to a friend about hunting frogs with air gun and he said that it is illegal and the thinks that fishing whit a pellets/slugs may be as well I am going to look into it before posting a video as I don't ant to get into trouble. Thanks. Just saw this comment.
@@aaroncantrell8819 i know years ago ,you could shoot garfish that way , i would for sure ask the wildlife and fishery about it bud ,they know best .next they will tell us we cant shoot insects,. Rodents ,,,,,pest birds too lol !!!!
Great video, thank you
Great idea I'm definitely gonna try it.
You will love it. Be sure to make sure it is at least 10 inches thick and pack it tightly. Best of luck.
