Standing net for me!  :D

I bought  a fishing net on a wooden dowel, but it didn't really work. I was thinking about drilling a hole in a block of wood, but I still have to deal with the issue of the net sagging too much to actually catch the brass... :'(

You obviously don't have an AK :P
My Saiga throws brass (or steel) straight at the guy (or gal) in the next lane.

I keep envisioning a roll of netting wound around an 8' pipe, with monster spring clips on the loose end.  Clamp the clips to the rafters, let the pipe roll down and hang, creating a net wall between you and the guy next to you.  Of course, I'd usually use it for the guy with the AK 3 stations to my left!

On the mainland, my FIL is a member of a private range.  They built a pretty nice covered shed with about 20 shooting stations.  Each station is separated from its neighbors by a 3/4" plywood wall.  Absolutely no issues whatsoever with brass flying!  However, it is noisy as Hell to shoot in them.
