I just park my pick up truck strategically so the brass lands in the bed.
I've often looked at those. Can they be put up by one person ?
Thanks for the info !It's a bit of a pain, but do-able by one.
The recent arrival of a mail order package changes the picture for those of us still living in the Great Ammo DepressionTurns out that .32acp brass is unavailable online. Unless you want to pay 75 cents a piece.
Given that I’m starting my career as a 32 acp handloader with only 150 pieces, and given how many I lose each go around, I need a better brass catching solution or I’ll be out of business real soon.
Right now, I set up an extra cardboard target stand to my right, so the ejected brass hits the cardboard and doesn’t fly off into the brush to join my lost 762x25 brass. This method gives me about 2/3 recovery rate.
I’m thinking of draping a towel over the catcher target, to lessen the cardboard bounce.
Have you all found a better way to recoup your unusual-caliber brass?
Nice rig there. You can work on your target practice, while your brass plays a game of Horse.A club officer built one of these for each range shooting location at our local range.....haven't tried it yet....I usually just shoot where I've layed out a blanket. When I'm done I just bring the corners together and scoop them up into a plastic bottle.....
Guess I ought to try this one out....who knows maybe I'll like it.

I made this one decades ago when I shot at a indoor range. I have a top that goes on it so they don't go over. I still use it today when I shoot on my own property. Just makes it easier to collet the brass. I put a plastic bag inside, so all I need to do is lift the bag out and I'm done. It's 100% effective if your brass ejects to the side. Those that go over your head you will have to go looking.
