Drums filled with sand, (3) placed staggered so none get through. I have access to tires too. I’m considering stacking them about 4’ and filling with dirt. Less accessible than the sand trap but I can still break it apart to reclaim lead. Even our .50 BMG FMJ will not reliably shoot through the sand drum at 100 yds.

I’m blessed with a good place to shoot, lots of land.

A “new” reloading issue, for me anyway… - WB, 2026-10-03, 14:19
- Might need a backstop behind the shooter as well, - Jerry Kiln, 2026-10-03, 20:12
