    Hey fellas,
    Well since i started shooting about 5 years ago i have never had a decent catch box, i figure its time, i am working on my version using a tripod for base. Its mainly pvc piping and fittings. It's going tos have some plywood lining the inside.
    Still a work in progress.
    Ill update the pictures when is complete.
    Cheers.

    You need a hole in the bottom for the ammo to drop out into a bucket or I use a magnetic parts tray mechanics use.

    Looks bad ass buttttt don't let rookies shoot at it. The pvc pipe will explode on impact. I've done it many times. Lol

    Maybe some thick ones. I've shot through those too. A rubber hose or maybe that rhino stuff. The good news is it's cheap to replace a piece.

    That should make a great catch box, I would like to see it when you get it done.
