Just got to put some sleds on the feet so that I can pull it to where I want it.

Better put something on the edges of the metal to protect your rifles.

Pieces of split water hose would work really well I bet.
If it is tourist season, why can't we shoot them?

I was thinking it needed some spray on bed liner on the top and inside to cut down the noise.  That thing will be louder than heck inside.   Every grain tank I've been in seem to amplfy every sound you make, but it ends up sounding like white noise after it all bounces around.

And your body parts!! 

Clever creation though. As stated, I bet that son of a pup will be louder than heck when you fire. 
If at first you don't secede...try..try again.

No humor from you guys this time.

I still think it is a little different to bait the birds and then take them.

G,
That's very creative.
Have you thought of insulation yet.
You know one thing that could work with you windows is pipe wrapping.
Put some gorilla glue on the inside of the wrap then set it. Keep you from getting cut up and scratching your stock.

I got an old water hose that I will be putting on the edges to keep it from cutting anything.  Also thought about hanging old sheets of outdoor carpet from the walls to cut down on noice.  Shot the 450 out of it Sunday just for giggles and its diffenatly not to be used without hearing protection on.  It will be placed in a area overlooking a large field, should work good for that.

I was concerned with that. You know great stuff could be used to insulate that and could help with the acoustics to baffle the noise.

i'll probably just double up on ear plugs and ear muffs this year and over the off season redesign with insolation, sliding glass windows and a few other "wants"......................  mini fridge, tv, toliet, recliner, computer, internet lol  Wink

I am going to set it up with a spiral stair case up through the bottom over the spring next year so I can close in the bottom with a trap door.
