Range Report- CTK Precision UBC1 Universal Brass Catcher
Range Report- CTK Precision UBC1 Universal Brass Catcher
I bought two of these for myself & son. Son shoots semiauto rifles, bolt & lever action stuff. Me I shoot ( poorly ) mostly handguns. The catcher is basically a large "fishnet" with a base and a plastic tube to hold the net open. I filled the bases with Copper plated BB's for weight. It took a $9 large can from walmart to fill both. I further modified by pre-drilling 4 small holes at the 'ends' of the bases, and screwed sheet metal screws to further secure the plastic end caps. I had a vision of a plastic end cap coming loose and 1 million BBs everywhere. ( overkill I know, BUT ) I also heated up the plastic tube ends , so they fitt easier on the the mounting studs. Shooting from the bench at a fixed spot the CTK works very well. Son got most his brass in the net. I shot from the bench with my pistols, and after moving to "just the right spot" nearly got all my brass in the net. I like to shoot standing, so next I will try to attach the base to a tripod, so it will be higher and match my stance. Next time. overall "It Works" The strays were picked up with the previously reviewed BRASS WIZARD.
