Portable Shooting Bench/Table

Got to be honest, sort of scared to try the Caldwell. I'm no lightweight (260) I hate gambling and want to do it right the first time! Rick, I'm pretty convinced were not going to find one of yours. However, my fingers are crossed.
The stable table? Im 240 and 300 would be easily fine. I have the plastic top one. Good if you plan to hunt or don't want to make something. Also tons of miles offroading with it in the back of the truck. For targets id do something where the chair is separated.
 
Another one to consider is the DOA bench. Made by former Marines, so there's that, and it appears to basically be a copy of the original design but is still available. Their bench features a tilt adjustment and the top is lightweight honeycombed material.


The DOA bench is rated for 500lbs, so you're all set there. I have no experience with this unit, as it came available just as I sold my patent to Mid

My neighbor gave me one of those. He used to work for the company that made them and had one he'd never used. He was a metalworker but not a shooter.
Tell him I would like it and that it will be in good hands! ;)

I sent Caldwell an email on the weight limit. We'll, see? So PM me and give me the scoop on yours.

Mike Caldwell makes two different shooting tables. The stable table says on Amazon it’s a 275 weight limit. This one has the plastic top which is a big flaw in my opinion. I have this table and planning some day to make one out of wood.
They have a second stable table BR is the one Rick posted with the wooden top. I would imagine this one probably carries similar weight raiting.

My problem with the top isn't the plastic. The top is way too short for modern stocks that are long with the bipod on a spigot.
