In reply to 9Volt.

bbs ricochet, and tear up good rifled pellet barrels.
we always shoot lead pellets indoors.
they’re not creating vapor/ dust at 1000fps.

In reply to Geoff “I’m getting too old for this shit” PR.

When I was little & in Cub Scouts, they taught us how to make BB target traps for shooting indoors.
[Shooting indoors is for steel BBs only. Nothing lead-based.]
– Larger cardboard box.
– Completely fill the cardboard box with newspapers (if anyone remembers those) on end.
– Put target on front of box.
– Enjoy shooting activities indoors.

The steel BBs can be recovered & reused but it’s best to do that outdoors as the papers start to get pretty shredded after a while and make one heck of a mess when you pull them out. (Don’t ask me how I know…)

In reply to tsbhoa.p.jr. I think a tarp from Wal-Mart will pretty much equal that monstrosity, and save me 2 freaking thousand bucks...

This looks like it’s aimed at commercial users but this does give me some ideas for a project…my granddaughters will be just about the right age to get some air rifle training in the spring.
