How effective are these on a gun range, specifically for trap shooting?

I fire pistols. However, due to existing hearing loss I use ear plugs and the 3M H10A. It is very comfortable and very effective in this manner. Both my wife and I use this model.

I have used these a couple of times at an indoor range and they are great shooting 45,357, and 223. I have not shot a shotgun with them yet though.Hope this helpsI have never shot trap with these though

Bought these for my wife. They work great for her at an indoor pistol range with a 38 and a 9mm pistol.

I don't trap shoot at an inside gun range. I shoot pistols (various) at a large and busy indoor range. They are much better than those I rented at the range.

These worked well for us in an indoor range with concrete walls. We have not used them for trap shooting. God bless you and yours!

Competition trap shooter here. This is actually a preference. These will work very good and I would recommend them. I generally prefer the in ear plugs. Try these: SureFire EP7 Sonic Defenders Ultra filtered Earplugs w/ Comply Canal Tips, reusable, Black, MediumI use these for all my shoots and I've tried many different ones and these are the best in my opinion. Good luck.

Absolutely this is a very good use of them. I keep a range magazine that is only used for malfunction drills that is marked and mixed with these and live rounds. It's also useful to see if you are pulling the gun anticipating recoil as it wont cycle like a normal round.

Keith, my friend shot me with one so I could really see just how effective these are... I can just about say that I would rather be shot with a .45 hollow point... these thing are truly a little less than lethal! So they are definitely hot!!!

Accuracy is great, considering that it's a break barrel. I've been able to stay on target at 100 yards, outdoors with the wind. 4 - 5 inch groups. I use Crossman domed or hollowpoint pellets.

The trap works perfectly as designed. If your dealing with a beginner learning to shoot a twenty two pistol or rifle, 7 yards would be good.A more experienced shooter, depending on skill level, might place it 25-50 yards away.

I don't think so. These are gee,at but i think you would need something with greater power for rifle range spotting.

We use these on a couple 22LR's. Probably overkill for air rifle - pretty limited range due to low exit velocity. You might be more satisfied with a red dot sight.

YES. I shoot in my back yard with a RWS 34 at 25 yds. And it works just fine. I put a piece of carpet behind it to catch strays, if I miss. Good pellet trap.

I can't say, but I have been firing these from an RC-150 from Barnett without adding any nocks just as they come. No problems in 50-75 target practice shots.

I guess it depends on what kind of shooting you want to do. Some of the self defense guys around here are shooting at 7 yards, and that would be fine if your loads aren't too hot. I'm used to IHMSA and more powerful loads, and use this target at mostly at 50 yards for them and it dimples, but it can handle a .45 up pretty close I think.

Yes. With .20 gram bbs I hit a six inch wide pole from 100 feet away about 8/10 times with the iron sights. The missed shots were only off by maybe 1 inch.

I would suggest that after reading the operating information for the trap, that you redirect this question to the manufacturer. I am not going to be on their tech support team. I think the basic idea behind the traps might be ultimately effective, but maybe the implementation in the hardware is less than optimal.

Personally speaking, yes. They are very strong and accurate for strong rifles. But. I would not shoot anyone with them. They really really hurt and are metal. (Aluminum)

Yes,I think they will work better because of the weight of the pellet. The distance may not range as far as a lighter pellet, but accuracy should show a difference at a comfortable distance. I got them for a Benjamin/crosman NP Titan air rifle for accuracy at a range comfortable distance. Like all guns/bows they all have a maximum distance u got to find out how far that is. But the heavier pellet will be better then a light one.

I have not done any shooting but I can say that these reduce noise although perhaps not enough for that kind of noise. If you are not looking for fidelity in the sound that goes into your ears, I would look for stronger protection if I were you.

Accuracy is pretty good for about 200 feet but that's with good paint and no wind, only other thing to increase range and accuracy is an apex barrel for a scenario gun. Good paint is always a huge part. Bad paint makes balls fly every where and let's face it were not playing at a stripclub

I believe it would be fine for hunting within a certain yardage. I personally wouldn't shoot at anything but paper from more than 100 just to be on the safe side of taking ethical shots. no magnification + not the sharpest dot make it a little hairy if your hunting anything but varmints. I'm not a great shooter though so your experience could lend more utility from the red dot world of sights
