Simple backstop

[Hemmers]

Please excuse my inexperience, but could I not just use a piece of plywood for a simple backstop? Or would the pellets just bounce off it? I would think the pellets would sink into it, but I am new to this, and have not yet received my pistol. (thanks to striking Canada Post!)

We've got ply sheet like that. It's a mix. Some sink in, some bounce back. Was fine when I was shooting from some distance with air rifle, but for pistol you're that bit closer and the low power of the pistol means they tend to bounce more than penetrate, so carpet it is.
