How to mount?

[NathanJefferson]

So I'm looking to pick up some Round steel next week (or is it the week after that?) at the 1500.

What do you recommend to mount them by? I was thinking of SS bolts and chain hung from posts? IF that works, do you have a recommended bolt size(what size are the holes?) or chain size?

Yes I'm a noob.

i dont know if its the best way but i move my steel constantly around the farm to take advantage of crosswinds and i bought some of those cheapo metal saw horses, threw chains over them and ran a bolt threw the chain. eventually you will need to be carful grabbing the sawhorses, but at first i made wood horses and they didn't last a day due to bullet frag.

my way make for quick and easy transportation, you will break chain and bolts from time to time but thats a quick cheap fix

What size bolts/chain did you use?

I was thinking of hanging it from metal T posts.

Here are several DIY tips: https://www.indianagunowners.com/fo...discussion/173909-mounting_steel_targets.html

Bobcat also manufactures several mounting solutions themselves. They are quite nice.

Every stock item we offer has holes for 1/2" bolts.

Mounting options are really situation dependent. What are your goals?
