The quasilinear theory of collisionless test particle diffusion in stochastic magnetic fields is extended to include the effects of finite gyroradius, particle drifts, and magnetic trapping. Runaway-electron confinement is substantially improved relative to earlier estimates which assumed that particles exactly followed field lines. Trapped particles are not expected to be stochastic.
