[QUOTE="Buffalobob, post: 363343, member: 8"] When my kids were young I built a very effective trap with an angle back that would deflect pellets down into a layer of sand. I had a wire stretched along the top and hung a cloth from it and then a target in front of the cloth. Surprisingly enough, the loose hanging cloth would enfold the BB or pellet and not allow it to penetrate and then the BB would drop straight down into the sand. The elaborate backboard was unnecessary. We did not ever use max power because we only had 15 feet distance to shoot. A storage bin turned on it side with a couple of towels over the opening and a pillow inside should work as long as you keep the power down. Safety glasses are important because BB will bounce around like crazy if you hit a hard surface. [/QUOTE]
