Just bought a house with a 25 yard basement so naturally I am considering building a bullet trap to use down there.
Low-velocity non-jacketed .22 rimfire only.
I was thinking about a 2 or 3 foot cube made of sheet metal with an angled back panel - similar design to bb/pellet gun bullet traps - but heavier duty for .22's.
I am not an expert welder/fabricator but my dad is, and so I have access to tools, expertise, materials, etc.
Looking for any relevant experience, plans or ideas for plans, hints, tips, suggestions, or even just random personal ruminations.
If someone makes this product already, I'd consider just buying one.
