Not the best, but handy. Four wheeler isn't as solid as a fixed bench, but it's not that bad.

Picture shows view from behind my house, then looking the other way, you can see targets stapled on a cardboard box.

The last picture shows it as a pistol bench.

Stool is a Gibraltar drum throne. Not cheap, but a great shooting bench stool.

My house is out of the city limits, but there is a subdivision at the front, pasture at the rear. I'm sure they can hear me shooting, but no one complains.

Green towel protects my bony elbow from the steel rail as the gun recoils. It's really pretty comfortable.

It was a nice, still morning, around 45 degrees. I spent the whole morning shooting, letting one cool while I shot another.

That looks fancy. I prefer the cheaper version, the ground. It's handy, being everywhere and all...

Even has a silencer.

Super easy and super solid. Sit backwards on the tank, lean forward, chest/elbows resting on the bale.

Big fine and I think a loss of license here.
Only loaded gun that can touch a vehicle is a defensive
handgun with a concealed permit.

Lay a loaded rifle in a truck bed, lean one against a tire,
And you are in trouble. And loaded includes magazine.

F'n PAGC.
I think the IRS studies them in Prick Class.

On private land- tell them to get fuqqued. This is not a hunting situation so they can go screw themselves

2 ways I like do do this on SxS, one is to fold down the tail gate & pull up a folding chair behind it
Another way is to jump or climb [I have a short ladder from tree stand and hang it] in the box and rest the shooting legs on the cab roof, shoot standing is very steady when leaning against the rear window...

Standing also reduces felt recoil more than from standard bench or prone. I have used my ATV and snow machines both for target practice and to kill game. Sometimes across the seats, sometimes across the handle bars or racks. With and without extra padding, bags, etc. Whatever works.

Son and I set up this shooting-blind while caribou hunting this fall, not least to get out of the cold 20 mph wind. No luck here for him, but my wife made her kill from it a couple days later.

Well, of course. The scope alone would crater a scissor jack....
