Steel wagon reinforced with AR500 steel ?

I have one of these little wagons. With a narrow wheel base they will roll at the drop of a hat. Just hauling apples in them will make them roll at the slightest incline or turn. I believe steel on only one side would be a problem and may roll just from the weight alone. I would definitely look at something with a wider wheel base.

nice jobs on the gong holders. looks like i dont need to reinvent the wheel so of speak. I like these frames that require no tools. Marty
 
Here's an idea--Field and Cave has AR 500 targets than fit onto a hanger, which they sell - and the hangers slide on top of onto a std. steel fence T post.
You could drive a stake and leave it - then take the target with you, or just dump the AR target on the ground. Not too heavy- 6 lbs. ?
Just don't shoot low- too often :). I'll be doing this as soon as the ground is not frozen. What do you think? You'd have to drive some stakes but probably easier than hauling a wagon. need a small sledge only.

I have 4 T post targets from Hangfast and they’re great. Ring like a bell when hit since one bolt holding it. Bullet splash is directed downward into the ground. Couple years ago they took a pounding at of WV. 223,243,25-06 and no marks on them.
And northern tool sells a nice little T post puller that is simple to use and will really help with your arthritis and other issues. I have a bunch of those targets and hangers and have pounded them with everything up to my 28 nosler ad 195 bergers and they are in great shape.
 
Were are you shooting 1000 yards in Iowa? I grew up there and will be visiting July and August and could use some 1000 yard practice. 1000 yards here in flatland Florida is rare.
