posted the pictures of his bullet trap about two years ago. I made one last spring and just emptied the trap yesterday and came up with about 400 lbs of lead that would have been in the dirt bank without it. I use it exclusivly now for working up loads at 25 yards and figure its more then paid for itself in just the last year. It doesnt save all my lead but id guess i probably can reclaim about half of it now.

I got it off of here. I think it was in the gunsmithing section. My camera took a crap so i cant get you a picture. Its a 3 foot square front box made of 1/2 steel. I tapers to the back like a 4 sided funnel and the funnel ends in a 4 inch steel pipe elbow that was boiler tube. The elbow directs the lead down into a 24 inch diameter stee pipe that is about 3 feet tall and has a plate welded on the bottom. Hope this helps at least some.
