    Yeah they like to shoot. They both started at 5 with single shot .22lr bolt rifles.

    I have spoiled them a little over the years.









    Sorry for the hijack

The corners of the angle iron was welded and ground smooth. Then screws were used to attach it to the particle board. The legs are standard buffet table legs.

    Dimensions of table.



    I put scraps from the cutout under the front legs to raise the front and allow the front legs to fold over rear.





    Are there times you wish the cutout was more than 6"?

    Occasionally but not very often. When shooting prairie dogs you switch the angle so often that the table could be a rectangle and work almost as well.

    The original design I used had cutouts on both sides, that might be why it was only 6".

    If I was using it to shoot straight ahead at stationary target a bigger cutout would probably be better.
