Well I tested my bullet trap today, it worked beautifully! I shot it with my .22 rifle, .22 Magnum revolver, that .45 tower pistol I built, and it stopped the shots just fine! I'm going to strain the kitty litter tomorrow when I'm not so tired. It worked so well! Sadly I forgot my Remington at home, so I wasn't able to test it with that. But it did stop the .45 Tower pistol, that was pretty cool! It was the first time I fired that thing, it didn't blow up so I'd consider it to be a successful test firing. For having literally no sights that thing was pretty darn accurate!
Speaking of targets and bullet catchers and such, I got the opportunity to test that rimfire spinner I bought at Cabelas. This was kind of a torture test, I bought it for $10 and figured I could see what it could take. But it handled bullets from a .22 LR, .22 Magnum, shots from that CVA Tower pistol, it handled 50 grains of FFFG under a .50 roundball like a champ. I decided to try 75 grains, it did get a little dented. So I think this spinner target gets the "Levi seal of approval" for being so dang tough. That thing was a ton of fun to shoot! You guys have gotta try one, they are awesome!
