Where do you shoot and what do you shoot off of?

[Marble8]

Just a fun thread to see where we all shoot and what we type bench or whatever we shoot from. Maybe we’ll see something we might want to incorporate into our setup. Post a pic or two (now that it’s working again). I’ll start it off.
And no, the Easter eggs aren’t filled with tannerite, just flour.
I can move the bench back to the rear of patio and target to brick wall and get 40 yds, or 96 yds if I move them to each end of the yard and shoot lengthwise on property.

The back yard for practice and sight in if needed. I use the bench mostly for sight in and practice from a bucket and sticks or sitting on a bum bag.

Here are a few pictures of how I usually shoot.

And here are what I usually shoot at. (Salem Rifle and Pistol Club in Salem NY last FT shoot this fall)

I know it's hard to see but those little black shapes in the field are field targets similar to the one in my avatar.

This is my 110 yard range I built on a piece of my property,the 2 bags are for crossbow shooting not Airguns.

I shoot in the back yard with family and friends, from my porch and my picnic table, home made bench, or bucket and sticks. Oh lordy, don't get me started ! ;-)

Marble8, I like the idea of using those little plastic animals for targets, I have the small chicken,turkey,goat and ram in steel but the use of the little plastic ones is a neat idea and makes it even more of a challenge at closer ranges with the 177 and 22, I know I have a bunch of zoo animals around someplace from when my children were little so now I just need to convince my wife to locate them...

My backyard only gives me 35 yards so I just shoot small items, anything from paintballs to other stuff around that size. I shoot off of a Caldwell Magnum Fieldpod or folding table. When I go out to the old landfill and shoot at longer distances I use the fieldpod exclusively.

 

[Imold]

The field Pod is nice, also like my walking/mono stick with the gun rest, think it’s a Primos or something like that.

CampFussell, like the pics and I remember you talking about the movable wood target system you made, nice idea...

I am really envious of all that property. I can get 20 yards in my back yard if I really work it. I will definitely fix that when I move though. Need to be in the country. This city life is no fun at all.

I found those at a party supply store as party favors. Got army men too. Most places that sell toys have both in some form or other. Even the dreaded WallyWorld!... lol

THEY ALL LOOK GREAT.

Here and there, and everywhere.......

 

[CampFussell]

Wow, Gunner. I can't make up my mind which I like the best, the rock quarry or the mountain view! Beautiful shooting locations.

 

[Gunnertrones]

I think my shooting environment is a bit different from yours Camp. I live in a flat at the seaside and shoot from my terrace towards the seaside now and then. Long range 200+ meters. Or from my see house. (Made me a hatch as you can see). That's ok, but what I like the most is to backpack one of my guns or pistols, a couple of extra sylinders, and go into the mountains that surrounds my small mountain cabin. Fishing, shooting, tenting.... Just love the combination.
But I must say........ You really have the most comfortable shooting possibilities just at your doorstep. Envie you that!

My spot is in the barn yard...can get from 20 yards to 50-70 across the barnyard into the woods.
All off a picnic table with a few large blocks of packing styrofoam and a few thinner slabs of styrofoam insulation board for sitting my rear-most hand on. steel spinning targets, some hanging old keys, coins (which shatter by the way).
Hafta get & post some pics like others have.
Quite a large variety of shooting arrangements here tho. nice to see what others have done and get ideas from it !

Here's a shot from a while back-my 'rickety rest'

And looking downrange, I had 50 yards then but have cleared out to 80 now

One of my first sub 1/2'' 50 yard groups, .25 Marauder

 

[CampFussell]

John, that's one hell of a good idea with the concrete blocks to get your table stabilized! I would have never thought of that. Beautiful view and damn good shootin'.
