The carpet tiles are a great idea for my pellet trap. Now I just have to figure out how I'm going to attach them to the back of the trap.
David, the targets are hiding a couple cleats made of scrap lumber that keep the squares in place, there are also 2 at the top. They just wedge the squares to the back of the tote with a slight bow (in the squares) since they're slightly taller than the inside dimensions of the tote.

Duct Tape works well too I'm using a Champion .22 rimfire bullet trap and want to put a piece in the back so there is no DING. I don't think I can put cleats inside this so maybe duct tape for now.
Broadside Brian,I see cubicle walls in the background of your picture. Are you using them as a backstop at home or are you lucky enough to be able to shoot at work? That would be a nice perk !!
