Whoa there bubbers! You got all kinds of stuff going on in your URL's.

You only need to copy the "IMG" tag from photobucket. No reason to embed them.

Ha thanks guys - I was kind of figuring it out as I went there posting the pics. Sniper I'll get one more of the box up in just a min, gotta send it over from my phone. It's just the small kobalt box from lowes...not a very substantial piece of equipment, but it doesn't take up much bed space and there's a good gap underneath it so you can still slide a fishing rod etc. in there.

Patrick they never rake the shells up at that dayum place, and their day rate went up 2 bucks this week...I gotta look for a new place to shoot. Just a matter of time until someone slips in the 6" deep shell pile and fires one off in a bad direction.

The toolbox and a couple more of the lights

Box of clays slides under the toolbox like it was built to fit, if that's any frame of referance for you. don't have a shot of the side, but it's pretty slim I'd say about 1'

I hand load most of my trap and hunting rounds, but the pics are in an open field and we were just messing around hand tossing stuff. I think we were shooting bulk target winchester or federal stuff that day and like everyone else we cycled them into the dirt and never thought about them again. Cheap target loads can be had for cents a round...hardly any savings to be had hand loading them and when you factor your time in it's debatable whether it's worth it - course one shot could go 1300fps and the next 1100 with the stuff you grab off the shelves...but sometimes it's nice to have an excuse for the ones that get away:)

Plus like I said, they never clean that place. Each station gets several shooters a day, and those shells have been building up no joke for over a year. The only time the pile ever shrinks is if some of the shells get dragged off by the snow plow when they open stations up in the winter.

Thanks man. I was skeptical with how pricey they were for just a piece of molded plastic, but they seem to be tough as nails I'm happy with them.
