I know brass catchers, tarps, and other concepts have been discussed.

My free to practice spot is minutes from home, but is in a hay field in central Minnesota, Lol. Depending on the cutting cycle, the hay could be shot or tall, regardless of height, it's still really hard to locate my 10mm brass, any ideas would be great. I have a sweet indoor range 20 minuets away, but really like this spot, plus, can bring my coyote calling Stuff, along with the AR, and maximize the fun...Thoughts...

I am with you, I have tried everything.  Only solution that I know works is to bring a kid to the range with me to bird-dog brass and collect; however that creates it own set of issues.  I would love to hear a good resolution.

I occasionally use this wrist mounted brass catcher... ( top few of thread )

Is it the best, No... but it does work about 95+% of the time and not in the way after you get use to it

I have never done this, but plan to some day.

Costco sun awning (or whatever brand is a good price.
Tarp big enough to go under the awning.
Mosquito netting to go around the sides.

It would take about 30 minutes to set up, but then I could stand inside, shoot, and the brass would all be contained on the tarp inside the awning by the mosquito netting.  And, shade.

That is a great idea.

I use the Caldwell brass trap, mounted on a camera tripod.  Catches >95% of the cases. It takes about 3 minutes to setup.

Some great ideas, Thanks!

Someone posted  a picture of a brass catcher that they made using plastic pipe and a mesh bag for washing lingerie. I built a similar one and it works great. Occasionally, when shooting "full-power" 10 loads, it will bounce the brass back but it ends up by my feet so I don't loose any brass. The person showed the catcher and their M1A. Tried to find it but could not. Perhaps, it could be reposted

Would really like to build on / try this
Thanks Folks!

I just lay one of those cheap blue tarps down. I think mine is 12' x12'. Works great and was cheap lol!

That would be perfect is the hay field was always short, but when longer, the functionality goes away quickly

Several of my 10's have a variance in distance of more than 12', and often toss the brass 20-30'

If this works for your gun, great, but I have a 30X40 tarp and still end up lowing 10%.

Lol, me too

I was able to google 10mm-firearms.comgear and found the article. Den Stinett showed a catcher he made and gave instructions and showed pictures. This was originally posted on 6-22-2013 showing a handheld catcher then Den showed his with his M1A. Tried to get a link by doing a copy and paste but could not.

Thanks for your efforts Jim
