Woo Hoo!!! Got a chance to throw some lead at my new dueling tree from Action Target the other day. I got their rimfire model after reading/watching a ton of great reviews... Dueling Trees
Here's a front view:
Here's a shot of the pivot mechanism:
Here's a side view showing the forward angle of the tree...helps direct splatter down:
And here's a shot of a couple paddles after a few hits....they had no denting or pitting at all:
I shot a couple hundred rounds at it during the morning and had a blast! The tree functioned perfectly for me. A good solid hit flipped the paddle to the opposite side with authority. A weak, "chippy" hit only bumped the paddle back a bit. All in all I'm super pleased with the build quality and ease of assembly...got it together in less than 15 minutes. It is very stable while in use and needs no stakes or other stuff to keep it upright and working.
