Shooting Bench

#1 Post by dave_303 »

I see many guys on the full-bore ranges using portable shooting benches, anyone got know a good place to get them from or a good model (preferably under £100) not for me but a friend who is taking up shooting but has bad knees and struggles from getting up or down in prone

It would be easy enough to build something like this I would have thought.

Probably the seller so he didnt get his ad banned , whats the difference of seeing a picture of a real rifle and a 1/6th scale model of a rifle ? None because in a photo you cant tell size scale or anything else but if its real its banned . sign01

Just buy a sheet of MDF cut it to shape with a router or jig saw and fit four screw on legs to it job done.

Theres some good ideas on Youtube , the prairie dog hunters use them in the US , they trundle them out on wheels with all the equipment etc .

Seem to remember someone on here using a cheap (sub-20 quid) workmate 'clone' from Screwfix or similar with a home built top made from ply/MDF whichever. Sounds like the economical option to me!
