Shooting stool

Well there are fewer of us, we do the work and test. Seeing is believing. But hey, everyone is free do do it their way, even if it's wrong, lol. I think those big padded seats for big padded rearends make those drummer stools popular. Oh, and the chrome bling.
 
At our 1000 yard br events I see the bigger guys using the ‘roc um’ spin adjustable at $200 ish, I use a $100 Yamaha drummers throne.
I really don’t see the Sinclair type beyond the local short range stuff. I wouldn’t opt for plastic anyway but that’s just me.

I agree on the plastic chair. It just doesn’t seem sturdy enough to me.

Bart carries one that has to be 15yrs old- and hes not easy on it. Nobody shoots more rounds per year than he does. Ive went thru a few drummer thrones but his sinclair is still going strong. The 5 leg base is way more sturdy than a 3leg throne and its about half as heavy.
 
An old Remington Rand steel stool from the 1930s might work well. Don't see many of these around much, anymore.

Again, I’d consider it but it is unavailable and unable to back order.

I use a drummers throne from amazon, it was on sale for $139, plenty sturdy and with 3 legs it is impossible for it to rock.
 
Three legs are great if you get so where with un even floors as they don't rock like something with more legs. If your a heavier guy a threaded adjustment is less spongy than the hydraulic style.
 
++ Sinclair International Shooting Stool. Haven't added wheels. Added plus, you can let your grandkids "spin" themselves silly. At the range, very comfortable and adjusts as needed.
 
I picked up this one from Sweetwater,works great and take it to the range every time I go.

$110

Yeah these are great, Jeff
Super quick fine tuning height, just lean fwd and reach under, to spin the adjuster for perfect mount, on any bench or rig.
Very stable too, and wont sag.
 
I use a simple inexpensive folding chair with a foam boat cushion, about 35 bucks, works good for me, I can lean back and a comfortable place to sit for for lunch.
