Well been a busy week erected (🤭🤭) not 1 but 2 sheds in a mission to make my shooting experience more pleasant especially when the weather turns.
Still a bit to do but has taken shape

Started the day like this after finishing the shed yesterday 20260716_111806.webp
Now won't show the ridiculous amount of crap that needed moving and re housed in other locations from the previous shed and shooting perch but it was a lot.

Ended the day like this

Previously I was shooting from the other shed to just a target where I now shoot from.
The target end still needs a bit of work20260716_170848.webp
I want to set up a bit more back stop and some spinners and things. All this hard work has managed to get me to 24.8m at the back wall of the shed so a little shorter at the target front, I am currently making a fold out target that will be set exactly 25 yards from the breech for shooting my nsra benchrest targets.

Was like this before20250905_164614.webp20260707_161759.webp
 
Thats a lot of work! Enjoy the fruits of your labour, it looks like it will be really useful and fun
 
That looks really well set up.

One thing I would say is maybe have a flag warning system so when you're shooting say the flag is up so that family know not to cross infront of the shed doors unannounced. I'm sure you've thought of safety or have something in place.

I would shoot similarly from my garage into the garden and I would always lock the backdoor so I knew 100% nobody could get out infront of the firing line.

They rarely come down to this part of the garden and only adults here, but the shed doors being open is basically the flag, shooting is the only reason they would be open and just in case the access steps down get blocked off.
