    One idea for a backstop is to make a small box with two or three layers of Coreflute lining the front face. Coreflute is partly self-healing when projectiles go through. You'd fill the box with sand or similar which would prevent any voids for pellets to get through, something that clay clearly isn't good at. I haven't tried it but I'd guess 50mm of sand would stop any pellets, even from a PCP.

    Brilliant idea. I wouldn't use the wood, I'd just use the lid and cut a bit of the lid away.
