    Since your plate racks use a boltless design to hold plates, can you mix different size plates on the same rack? Or is each rack designed for a certain sized plate? I am guessing you can mix them up.

    Next question is about portability. I can drive about 10 miles from my house and set up anything I want and blast away. I cant leave anything there as it is public land but I can drive right up to where the targets would be set up and load and unload. Do your racks break down fairly easy or is it easier just to put them on a trailer? We basically live in a wilderness area and its 3 hours one way to any kind of 3 gun shoot or steel so its time to start building up our own set of targets. Once we decide where we want to buy land then I can leave it where I use it.

    Thanks for your interest.

    You are correct, the paddles can be anything you want. I've actually got a six paddle rack laid out for pickup tomorrow. I'll get a picture to you to show you the breakdown. I'll post it on here tomorrow.

    Here is how the plate breaks down. Not pictured is the target plates and the legs. The legs are four foot long pieces of angle.

    That gives me some ideas. I can see going a couple different ways to do what I want. Time to save up some pennies. Best way to figure it out is to own it!

    Thanks for the pic.

    PS how hard is it to ship that thing? That is cheaper then me driving 1200 miles round trip.

    Glad that picture helped. Let us know if you have any other questions.

    Last one we shipped was about $150 to the Carolinas.
