I have made several pellet traps over the years. unfortunately "Answers" has no way of displaying drawings or photos so it's very hard to show you. If you don't want to spend the money for a Crosman pellet trap then the simplest way is the old fashion Box full of old phone books, cardboard, carpet and anything that will absorb the pellet shock. These will usually stop any pellet or BB, EXCEPT a PCP air rifle. I own 4 different PCP air rifles and have blown the back out of several homemade pellet traps. Now I take them to the range.
I usually make several different targets on my computer and run them off on my printer. I've also downloaded targets off the web and just printed them up as I need them. If you want something that will blowup then shoot at animal crackers. They are cheap and the birds will love you..

What is a creative way to make a pellet target out of household items?
Pizza boxes stand up by themselves and are easy to see where the shot hit, or the small apples explode when hit!
Is a 22 firearm or a pellet gun better?
For us to answer, you would have to define "better". I can target shoot at 50-100 meters with a .22 target rifle, and I can't do that with a pellet gun. But I can target shoot in my basement during bad weather with a pellet gun- and I can't do that with my .22s.
Will 600 fps pellet pistol go into wood target?
It depends on the distance and the type of wood. Pine is soft but Iron wood is hard and the pellet may not penetrate it. The further you are from the target the less energy the pellet will have when it strikes.
Are pellet guns safe?
Pellet guns are safe so long as safety rules are followed, same as firearms. # Always consider the gun loaded. # Do not point the gun at anything you do not intend to shoot. # Keep your finger off the trigger until your sights are on target. Pellet guns are intended for target shooting and small game hunting. They are not intended to be fired at people. A pellet will cause severe damage to an unprotected eye and will break skin. Some higher-powered pellet guns have enough power to embed the pellet in muscle.
What can you kill with a 781 BB pellet gun?
This rifle is designed for target and plinking only it is not designed for hunting. BB do not deform when they hit a target so they do not make a clean kill. The animal usually suffers first and may take a long time to die. This is why it is not recommended for any hunting. Pellet rifles are a better choice for small game kill.
What is the best pellet shape to hunt squirrels with?
Several airgun makers make suitable pellets for hunting. Try Crosman "Hollow point pellet" they are designed for small game hunting. Or the Gamo "Pointed Hollow Point" it also is designed for hunting. Stay away from the Gamo "Raptor" Pellet. It is too light and wonders off target in a breeze.You could use any pellet almost.

How do you identify a pellet rifle?
A pellet rifle has no firing pin. It also can not fire a bullet or gunpowder. It can not be made to do so either. The pellet has no charge (casing like a bullet) it just a pellet. However pellet rifles can be just as deadly as a real firearm. They use Air or C02 to project the pellet downrange. Some Pellet rifles are used for hunting, others for target practice. The Major difference between a firearm and an air rifle, is Gunpowder is use in Firearms and Air or C02 is used in Air rifles.
Is there an air gun that can kill a rabbit?
Most Pellet guns and Rifles will kill a rabbit. I suggest using Hunting pellets for the quickest kill. BB guns are a poor choice for hunting rabbits. The BB do not deform when they hit a target and will make the rabbit suffer, where the pellet is designed to put the animal down quickly.
Is the Benjamin Marauder 22 more accurate than a 25 cal?
Somewhat. The .25 cal is just bigger and hits harder. Other than shape and air pressure behind the pellet, the size and weight of the pellet has a effect on the accuracy. OKAY look at it this way. (Pellets come in different weights.) a lightweight pellet will fly faster and farther than a heavy pellet. BUT it is more effected by crosswind than a heavy weight pellet. The Heavy pellet will fly straighter, slower and have more knockdown power than a lighter pellet. So a .25 cal pellet is heaver and slower than a .22 cal pellet but it has more impact and a little more accurate than a .22 cal pellet. PCP rifles come in different sizes. like .177, .20, .22, .25, 9mm, .357 cal 45 cal and 50 cal. Hitting a target with a .177 cal is like hitting it with a BB, but hit it with a 50 cal and you rip a huge hole in the target. The .177 will fly a lot farther but the 50 cal is a destroyer. I own both a .22 cal and a .25 cal Marauder. along with several others.
