Well so far I've just been using a box with the center cut out, stuff with old clothes in front of a board.

Before I added the board at the back, one pellet eventually made through a thick layer of cloth right into the wall behind. The layers of cloth get beaten up pretty good after awhile.

Someday I may build me a proper one.

I have a similar kind of idea, make a box and stuff old clothes in. Now from your experience, i will make the side facing the wall, pretty think so that it doesn't go into the wall Rolling Eyes

You can also buy "off the shelf" metal pellet traps from companies like Crosman and Daisy- but a wood box stuffed with horizontal layers of carpet works well- just ask Alstone!
