We reexamine the problem of n - \bar n oscillations for ultra-cold neutrons confined within a trap. We show that for up to 103 collisions with the walls, the process can be described in terms of wave packets. The \bar n component grows linearly with time with the enhancement factor depending on the reflection properties of the walls.
