After I finish mowing I’m going to work on the range. I bought eight more centerfire gongs. All i need is the hanging chains to get here. Ive been reluctant to shoot centerfire because it scares the wildlife away. I’ve purchased a silencer and am waiting on the paperwork for a second one and will bw buying a third when i pick the second one up.

That looks awesome, i hope you have a great time using it

I’m thinking of having a metal road sign made that says Boot Hill Shooting Range. Then under it have a safety message and maybe a slogan like “ You can be buried here but don’t die here”.

The first thing that popped into my head seeing the round plates was; I would want to paint them bright green and pu Kermit the frogs face on them. I know, I have a weird sense of humor.

The eyelets could be eyes and maybe a bright red tongue .

I finished putting the wood protectors on. They look great and I’m thinking of painting the wood and protectors olive drab.


This type might work better for having a high cross board between two and hanging gongs under them.

I worked on the range for a few minutes this morning. I still have five more gongs to hand but need hardware to do so. Silver is for centerfire and orange is for rimfire.
