FAQs

What size targets does this holder accommodate?

The Jack Pyke Steel Paper Target Holder & Pellet Catcher is designed for targets measuring 5.5"x5.5" (14x14cm).

Is this suitable for firearms?

No, this target holder is designed specifically for airguns and pellet rifles. It is not intended for use with firearms.

How do I empty the pellet catcher?

The catcher is typically accessible from the bottom or rear. Simply tilt the holder or remove any access panel (if present) to discard the collected pellets.

Does it come with targets?

Yes, the product includes 10 paper targets to get you started.

Can this be used in wet weather?

The galvanized steel construction offers some protection, but it is best to dry the unit after use in wet conditions to prevent long-term corrosion.

How can I improve the stability?

Ensure it's placed on a level, firm surface. For permanent setups, consider mounting it securely to a wooden post or bench.

What is the main safety feature?

The main safety feature is the angled backplate, which helps direct fired pellets safely downwards into the catcher, minimizing the risk of ricochets.

Troubleshooting

Pellets not entering the catcher

Ensure the target holder is positioned on a level surface and the angled backplate is correctly oriented to direct pellets downwards into the catcher. Verify target alignment.

Target holder unstable

Place the target holder on a flat, stable surface. If mounting, ensure secure attachment using appropriate hardware.

Rust appears on the surface

Galvanized steel can develop surface rust in humid conditions. Clean the area with a wire brush and consider applying a thin layer of protective oil if stored long-term.

Ricochets occurring

Confirm the angled backplate is properly installed and functioning as intended. Ensure the shooting area is clear of hard surfaces that could cause unpredictable ricochets. Use only as intended with airgun pellets.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care: To maintain optimal performance and longevity:
