How Much Duct Seal?

Awesome trap, scott. I need to do something like that! My current trap is a cereal box stuffed with a phone book and old (clean) socks lol

Thanks Austin, it has been a fun little project.
I will probably swing by Home Depot in a neighboring town to get the remainder of the duct seal needed.

Roughly ~$2.50 per 1lb block.  Good luck and have fun shooting quietly the only sound from the targets will be the pellet hitting the target

Interesting reading here!  I shoot only PCP pistols (FWB P44, Steyr P10, Morini 162e) so not much worry over too much power.  My "range" is wide enough for three 10  meter targets with duct seal about 1 1/2" thick over the entire backboard (plywood).  I got a Lowes garage cabinet and put wheels under it and built my backstop on top.  It has an LED light bar (Lowes) for illumination.  The lower half has my "wolf range", which is a standard metal silhouette gallery (eBay) with magnetic stops and center shoot reset.  I use the base cabinet for my guns and targets, pellets, scale, etc.  Very nice unit and very quiet.  I have this setup in my garage (formerly a motorhome garage) and shoot between the cars (not much chance of an accident or I wouldn't do it or let visitors do it).  I shoot from 10 meters and have a scope to avoid the number of trips back and forth.  (BTW, visitors shoot from 15 feet until I feel comfortable with their prowess !)

This cabinette and backstop is not really very expensive and, with the wheels, could be used in any situation and put out of the way when not in use.  I hope this gives many of you some ideas and inspires you to do more shooting.

Now, anyone in the Prescott, Arizona, area is welcome to come shoot with me.

Happy Trails,
Dusty Johnson

Thanks for sharing Dusty!
The cabinet underneath for raising it's height and storage is something I hadn't thought of!

And yes, nice stable.

Great looking range Dusty, but don't shoot that 'vette!

I would suggest don't sneeze when you pull the trigger cause there is a whole lot of expensive paint to the left and right
