Right you are, so I opted for a shower. :lol:
I'll give 'em go tomorrow, probably move the portable, and
try a few longer shots.

Thanks, it should last, the legs are 3x3 angle iron, the top is 3x3.5".
The legs I drove about a foot into the ground.
Probably out last me. ;)

That looks great Al ! Does the splatter from the gong hits stick in the PVC?
Pontiac Bonneville...now that's a classic!! What year? Back in the grand ol' days you could get those with a 389 or 421 with 3 deuces and a 4 speed...a REAL Pontiac!

No trouble that way at all Forty. I have the plates hangin at the angle recommended by the company that I bought those targets from. So most of the hits are defected to the ground. Shooting7 targets great place to buy gongs from.
