Brass Catchers

[07cummins59]

Anyone use brass catchers? Anyone have any links to good ones? I regulary shot at my friends grandfathers place, and we are looking for a better way to catch the brass to keeps his yard clean. Trying to keep it clean so we can keep shooting there. Tried using a tarp but we still end up picking up little 22 shells all the time. Any suggestions.

FYI, I built multiple shooting tables for us, considering putting some type of netting on them, not sure yet.

thanks

I seen this last year, in an issue of "Handloader" magazine:

http://www.brassmagnet.com

Have no experience with it though. They gave it a positive review.

If you really want a good way to clean up brass- start shooting with reloaders. We are pretty good at hawkeyeing brass, and snatching it where no normal man can see, lol.

....just looked at the site....my friends and I always joke about having a "Brass Magnet"

I have no idea how good that thing is, BUT that model!!!! Any chick that shoots in heels like that is a winner in my book.

Can you imagine throwing that thing on the ground and then this appears:

they will go through it... its hit or miss.. if you are shooting 22s.. just use some old towel over it.

A 10x12 blue tarp from Harbor Freight works just as good ...

Instead of $124.95 plus shipping ... $2.99 + gas to drive to the south side of Brooklyn. Sorry, no carry-all bag, but a Giant Food recycle grocery bag will suffice if wifey will part with one.

Here is what I came up with. Simple but effective.
It cost less than $5:00 as I had the clamps anyway!

I use one of those cheap $10 TAPCOs that I bought at Bass Pro Shop; it works okay and occasionally gets in the way a little but it is effective.

It sort of looks like a colostomy bag for an AR.
