Events Show me your 9.5 Lockdown target Stands - 45 X 37 “ is BIG!

[tommyb]

Ok guys and ladies, 

I want to see your home made EBR 9.5 Lockdown target stands. Please describe your dimensions for target backing and what you used. Where you bought it, what size backing, target stands used, etc.. I measured the EBR official targets at 45” by 37” wide. 

Would really appreciate pics.

I just used a big 8ft piece of plywood and 6ft metal fence stakes to secure. Cheap and didn't have to actually build anything lol

Thanks for the input. 

Apparently my post has little interest since I only have one response. I thought it would be good to see what folks are doing. 

I have decided to go to a local builders supply store and will get (2) five foot 1x2” sticks and use an adjustable metal stand to assemble for the 9.5 target size. Will also get 1/4” plywood backing sized for 45x37” EBR Target.

I did buy some 1" wood screws to fasten 1/4" plywood to the two 1X2" five foot sticks. Very solid, and if you want to secure the metal stand you can additionally buy some sand bags to anchor the stand. 

Good luck, and thanks for the input...so glad there were so many responses.

Simple hillybilly setup, 2 fence boards from Lowe's ($3) and a

sawhorse that was already on the range.

Left over 1/2" PVC conduit, some scrap foam board, bag of PVC tees and a bag of PVC 90 degree elbows. About an hours worth of cutting and fitting. No glue so I could keep it portable. Worked well!

Nice job on the target stand, and good shooting!

Very cool dude. You can fill the bottom tubes with sand for extra stability too. Like it.

Dig that pvc stand. Great idea.

Got to hang mine. Hopefully this weekend

If there was a prize, you would win hands down. Love your PVC stand. Very solid and the way it lays on the ground is perfect. 

if you were near me, I would pay you to make me one. But, I already shot my EBR cards today.

Wow, first class target stand Tom. Too pretty to shoot full of holes man! LOL

Very nice Tom! Good luck tomorrow. Take your time and Don’t rush. Go slow, not like me.

Will try to take my time but I tend to get done fast when I shoot benchrest

I used a pallet with big pieces of cardboard screwed to it as a target backer:
