Robo46 40 Posted June 19, 2016 Report Share Posted June 19, 2016 Hi guys I have just moved house and intend to build a permanent pellet trap . I made one at the last house with 5 2x2 slabs just a box it had a strand of fencing wire running through it to hang targets off . It was perfect really but my wife said it was ugly and spoiled the garden . So I am looking to build something more pleasing to the eye . Any ideas or pics . Thinking more of railway sleepers cut up I tend to make things100xs stronger than they need to be so my pellet trap was a bit ott . Quote Link to post

mark williams 7,563 Posted June 19, 2016 Report Share Posted June 19, 2016 A bog standard bale of straw takes a million pellets to destroy and the impact is silent. If you encase the bale with a cheap timber frame, it lasts a long, long, time. "Silently" atb 2 Quote Link to post
moxy 617 Posted June 20, 2016 Report Share Posted June 20, 2016 A nice lump of log. Ring or section from the trunk turned on its side and shoot at the large round face. The end grain. It will need to be pine or Conifer It won't look daft. Lasts and works a treat. Quote Link to post
