Good Portable Shooting Table

"DRAGON64"

"CampFussell"I had the Caldwell Stable table and it was just too dang heavy to lug around in the carry bag when traveling with it..

I haven't done it yet, but plan to buy this and a sheet of plywood and a couple 2x4's and make my own personal table.

I built one of these, and love it! The legs are extremely stable, so the table is too!

Thanks for the tip Jimmy. Probably will be my next project! I shoot out in thre desert so things have to be portable!

Hello,

I have the DIY shooting table I mentioned earlier in this thread, but I also have a commercially available shooting "table", all self contained . . . chair is attached and swivels and the rifle rest is also adjustable. Here it is:



Kind of pricey . . . but works just fine and not too heavy at all to carry into the field.

That's a cool looking rig Fred. Gotta link or name we can google to study it further?

Thanks Fred, that is quite interesting.
Oh.....I forgot to tell ya.......Love the pup in your avatar.

While I was googling your Idleback I came across this and though it might appeal to big game hunters?

Thanks, had to make it nice enough to be accepted as deck furniture, otherwise it would have been just something lighter.

@CampFussell and @Tominco, thanks. It’s really a pretty easy build and quite solid. Not a long distance luggable bench, but if you need stability it works quite well. All parts can be bought at Lowe’s or Home Depot. 

Guys, who makes the shooting table that I see Tom, Rossi and Tyler shooting off of on American Airgunner? It has removable legs that are inserted into the table's down pipes and held tight with t-handle set screws.

And sitting on it will not get tired back, I have some problems with the lower back, so I worry.

Best regards,

Just built this one this weekend.

no fasteners no hard wear fits together like a kids puzzle, which makes it difficult for me to figure out.

Disassembled ready for travel. 

Hi; just how portable does it have to be. Will it be loaded and unloaded everytime from a vehicle or will it be stored on site ? My set-up consists of chef stainless steel small kitchen table (weather proof +++) from cosco, like $70. I got it to use as a microwave stand. 20 pounds maybe lighter and sturdy. And a short legged wood (kitchen ?) stool .got it from wal-mart,$20.Would'nt be at all to hard to throw in the back of a truck or van. As long as it's not to far from your shooting station.So you have to make 1 extra trip for the stool,whew ! Ain't gonna have a heart attack.I keep them in my shed right next to where I shoot. Takes me about a minute to open the shed,bungee cord the door to the nearby fence, carry table and then stool outside, grab my shooting block and bags which are on a tray, lay tray and all on table,grab my rifle and pellets and I'm in business,oh yea.ehh,I get carried away sometimes pecking on this keyboard.sry

I think this thing might be a good portable bench. I wish the seat was a separate piece.

Years ago I bought the BEST model Black and Decker Workmate. Hundreds of home use with this very stable vice/platform. I made a nice L shaped top for shooting.

Also, IMO a separate chair is superior to attached. If the chair has 3 legs, it will accommodate unlevel ground.

2 folding saw horses and a piece of 3/4" plywood cut to fit. 

I use an ironing board with sandbags and a folding chair.

Portable, adjustable height, folds for storage, cheap.
