Build Your Own Home Range | DIY Kits, Plate Racks & Dueling Trees

Looking to upgrade your shooting range setup or start one at home? We hit the range with Caldwell to check out their AR500-rated steel target kits, including long-range gongs, plate racks, and a rugged dueling tree. Whether you’re into rifle, pistol, or rimfire, these systems are built to handle it—and built to last.

We cover:
The DIY Long Range Gong Kit with an 18×24" rifle-rated target
A versatile Plate Rack Kit for static or falling plates with adjustable power factor
The fully integrated Dueling Tree with six 6" flipping plates and a solid AR500 steel center post

All kits are easy to set up with basic 2x4s (except the dueling tree—it’s all-in-one), and they’re adjustable to match your shooting discipline. From backyard practice to serious competition preparation, Caldwell Steel Targets are designed for shooters who demand performance and durability in one package.
