Putting on the pounds

No, I'm not talking about the Covid-19 belly I've been working on. Lol. I'm talking about my shooting bench. A friend of mine gave me a glass top table that his work was getting rid of and I put it on top of my bench.

This slab of glass is over 1/2 inch thick and weighs upwards of 75 lbs. My original set up worked fine except for the wobble it had when attempting speed shooting. 

Right side is with added mass of glass top, left is without.

All are eight shot groups @ 53yds (10 to 11 seconds to shoot each) with my WIldcat. Red dots are 1/2 inch. I'm no Matt Dubber as a speed shooter but this is a big improvement for me. Guess that I'm just trying to say that when you build your shooting bench if you don't need to move it; bulk it up.
