Birchwood Casey Adjustable Width Target Base Stand

Last weekend I was upstate camping. As usual, we did some target shooting.

We've used a few different target holders in the past but none have been ideal. The problem we run into is that the ground is very rocky so it's hard to drive any kind of target holder into it. This time we used a Birchwood Casey stand (Amazon affiliate link) that we're very happy with. 

I added two four foot long 1"x2" boards. For the backer, I cut open the box it came in and stapled it to the boards. It's more than wide enough to hold a military SR-1 rifle target.

The Birchwood Casey base has holes in it so you can secure it to the ground with stakes, but when we need to do that we'll probably just weight it down with a couple logs.

If you do target shooting at an informal range, this definitely gets two big thumbs up.
