That's so cool Hickok45 is a mod on this forum!I have been clearing out a couple of narrow lanes to shoot .22 Long Rifle pistols and rifles for a few weeks now (Very time consuming). The lanes go farter than they look in the pic. I put in three 4x4 posts a couple of weeks ago, and today I framed it and cut/installed the top from some scrap Corian that was going to be thrown away at work. I'll build a small deck around it one of these days, but for now I can shoot the rifle from it standing. I haven't put up any targets yet, but have two to get started. It will be shooting to the left of my 108 yard "range" I shoot everything at now.

Lol, not even close.That's so cool Hickok45 is a mod on this forum!
Absolutely, very peaceful………I might be found out there even not shooting!
That's really clever. I assume there's enough space around the legs to allow for warping and such?None of the bracing or deck boards touch the legs to the shooting table, just in case folks can’t be still
Made some more progress today since the rains skipped a day. Took two days off, hope the sun shines tomorrow.

Sunday afternoonSo when’s the get together
I actually have a Partner press, but that’s the other deck.Looks like a great place to bring a Partner press and do some load development.
It’s days like these that warm the heart fire!We had a great time.Three generations.
We christened the deck today.
My nephew and I giving the safety brief.

The grownups shot a few rounds as well. I just watched and did a little coaching. One child was afraid to shoot, so we didn't
make him, the youngest (2nd & 3rd pics) needed a lot of help, one needed us to get it on target, but the child above hit the
smallest part of the farthest target virtually on his own after we got him started. He did really well. We had a great time.
