Leveled out the ground and started the 12X12 frame.








The two boards at the end were too warped to go down flush so I have to get new ones. A roof will come along next month if time allows as well as a right side curtain to catch brass. It was a long hard day but the weather was beautiful!

Down to 200 yards.

Up top is 10-25 yard for pistol and 22

there is one steel gong at 50 and then many at the 100 yard berm and a few set at 130 and 150 then a frame at 200 yards with several gongs hung.

Reminds me of Hickock's setup on youtube. That thing has everything but air shocks....

At some point, you'll probably want a roof.

Did you join the beams together somehow before applying the deck, or is the deck the tying everything together?

Must be great to have that much land and privacy!

BBMW, he said the roof was to come.

I see in the future, fully enclosed with big widow to shoot out of, AC or heat, maybe a small fridge, and lights. Oh, and a couch for naps!

That's what happens when you only look at the pretty pictures.

Nice job Nframe! What do use as a backdrop?


No car is as much fun to drive, as any motorcycle is to ride.

Dirt berms up close. Out at 200 it goes into my swamp and trees.

I can't find the picture on the www now, but a fella made the exact same floor .

he put up a thin mesh wall to the right and it had 4 inch rain gutter at the bottom .

the casings hit the net and slid right in to the catch gutter at the bottom.

he stated that it caught about 75 % of the tossed cases
