    Just a tad difference in size.

    The HP has an operator class feel to it in build quality. The Epson feels a little more like “please be nice to me” quality.

    If I can’t get it setup, I’ll be calling one of you IT guys. :-)

    In the country, hopefully.
    Three of my AR500 targets fell. The treated lumber finally gave up after 20+ years of use lol. Think I'll get decent T post hangers this time and drive a few T posts this time around.
    Cheaper, and faster.
    This storm is wrecking havoc on my old range, but it's filling up my cistern. :)
    Love my t post stuff. Only downside is it doesn’t move easily to set up different scenarios, but I have enough stands to do that stuff.
    Make it Ring has some great t post hangers for individual targets and also tube.

    I'll have to check into those hangers for T posts, my old wood hangers are also reaching the end. T posts I have a lot of, one of the small pieces of ground I bought has them all over the place, I just take the tractor, high lift jack, chain and go foraging.

    They look like little elephants.

    These are just plain hanger types, but they have them for a DOM crosstube to hang multiple targets too.

    I do chain hang, so this looks like it will work for me. Sun, lead spall, and old age wears on the wood stands I have and eventually the bolts tear out of the wood or the wood collapses..
    T-dogg and I have quite a bit of stuff from them. Small business up in Michigan (IIRC). Always quick shipping and fair prices.

    He runs some good sales from time to time.

    I have that Epson, works fine, you have to download the scanning app but it's not too bad.

    Getting it up and running was simple and is seems to be functioning fine. Reasonably fast enough. Louder than the laser and the text quality isn't as sharp as the laser - but you would expect that.

    The screen is VERY SMALL and I can't read it without my reading glasses. lol!

    Hopefully, the ink cost will make-up for the slight degradation in print quality from the laser.

    It is not a complete apples to apples comparison though. That laser was $500ish well over ten years (?) and the Epson was $330 today.

    CZ!
