    After shooting groups for prob. way to long w. my precision rifles, it's priceless finally shooting a quality steel target @ distance, and I think it will pay dividends in terms of real world training unlike shooting groups.
    That's awesome. I'm getting one too.

    As been mentioned in this thread, and just for the heck of it, my son and I both tried to get two shots in the air before the first shot hit the target at 440 yds. We were able to do it a number of times.

    You do have to be quick to get that second shot off and to stay on target with the 5x optic to make it work. A higher magnification optic should be much easier.

    My son and I had a little competition going with this. I must admit, my 17 yo was able to out do his old man.

    Good for him!

    He's obviously paid attention to his old man, and he's got the added benefit of young eyes.

    The dueling tree looks awesome, especially for handguns!

    Trident, tommorrow, well actually today I was planning on whipping up a saw horse stand exactly like yours for my new steel. I just watched your 700+ yard video and it looked like you were using a different wooden stand in that vid although it was 700+ yards away so Im probably mistaken.

    Anyway, did you build a new setup that's different from your setup in your 1st post? If so, what are your opinions?

    Thanks bud. Yeah CMP's stand is the way to go. I just couldn't afford it until next payday and I'll probably order some pistol targets as well. (not saying the stand is expensive, I'm saying that my ass is broke )

    Awesome!

    I gotta find friends with a bigger piece of property than I have.

    And the fly sound effects were perfect.
