APOLLO 17cm Reinforced Pellet Trap/Target Holder

Not all pellet traps are created equal. Many of the cheaper options on the market are made from thin sheet steel that quickly dents, deforms or fails after prolonged use. The APOLLO 17cm Reinforced Pellet Trap is designed to offer a more durable solution for shooters who spend serious time on the range.
 
Constructed from approximately 2mm thick steel, this trap is built to withstand repeated use from sub-16 Joule air rifles and air pistols while offering a significantly longer service life than many lightweight alternatives.
 
Reinforced Steel Construction
The main body is manufactured from steel approximately 2mm thick, providing greater resistance to dents and deformation compared to many budget pellet traps. For typical UK sub-16 Joule airguns, this creates a durable backstop capable of handling thousands of pellets under normal use.
While it can also be used with higher-powered FAC air rifles at sensible distances, users should expect increased wear compared to sub-16 Joule applications.
 
Integrated Anti-Ricochet Design
Inside the trap, an angled anti-ricochet panel helps direct spent pellets into the collection area. This reduces the likelihood of pellet fragments bouncing back towards the firing line while helping keep your shooting area cleaner and safer.
 
Built-In Pellet Catcher
The internal pellet collection area helps contain spent ammunition, making cleanup far easier than shooting into improvised backstops. Simply empty accumulated pellets when required and continue shooting.
 
Suitable for a Wide Range of Targets
The front slot is designed to accept a variety of target materials up to approximately 2mm thick. This allows the use of standard paper targets, printed card targets and many aftermarket target inserts depending on your preferred shooting style.
 
Multiple Mounting Options
Dual hanging points provide flexibility when positioning the trap. It can be mounted to walls, fences, range frames or other suitable structures, allowing shooters to create a dedicated target area in gardens, clubs or indoor ranges.
