Q:

Soft Trauma Plate For Silent Bullet Trap?

Has anyone tried these out?
I have a heavy gauge bullet trap packed with duct seal and it
is getting old, heavy and messy.

Looking for alternatives for indoor shooting?
Thanks, Tony

Tony, I’ve been using the rubber mulch for the .257. I picked up a 5 gal. plastic paint type bucket from lowes, and filled it with the mulch. I place a burlap bag folded up on top of the mulch and close the lid. Set the bucket on its side and place the targets on the lid. ( They sell spare lids for just over a dollar there).

It is very quiet, and the burlap keeps any mulch from falling out even when the lid is really shot up.

The bucket having a handle really makes life easy! I reclaim all my pellet and .257 bullet lead as I cast for the .257.

Knife=MIke

Mine is in the garage.

It is 14x14x18 with a one end with a lip welded on so I can slide 3 layers of card board in.

If you tape the holes or change out the card board it’s not messy at all. If you shoot to big of a hole pieces will start to fall out. I sometimes just pull the card board and rotate the first to layers so the hole don’t line up when you slide it back in.

There’s a pic on here somewhere. I will look for it.

I know but is messy for an indoor trap.
Don’t you think?

Rubber mulch works real good.
