I finally broke down and bought a collapsible wagon to haul my range stuff from my truck to the shooting bench. This idea was passed along to me by various members here.

It should do nicely ... 220# limit, which would be way more than I would ever take ...

50lbs of ammo. 40 lbs of guns. 10 lbs of cases. 10lbs of tools, 1 lb of target ..... at the outside you should be fine! That would be 111#s.... half your limit!!

The one I use has held up for x2 years now and is a good portable way to get items to and from our sites. Good for the range and also good for transporting cased telescopes. I got the idea from members here too and it has paid off. Your mileage may vary. Saved my back and saves time. Good luck.

I hope it holds up well. It seems pretty stout. The back not so concerned about but as I've well documented here on the forum the wear and tear on my walking appendages will be where it will help the most. I'm pretty excited to try it out on Friday.

I use a giant Igloo cooler and a two wheel dolly. One time it was so windy, a regular occurrence here. It would blow the lid closed every time I turned around from retrieving items. My son, who was sheltering in the truck. Was too busy laughing to video my losing struggle for posterity. :)

Now if you can figure out how to attach a 3.5hp Briggs & Stratton w/ a centrifugal clutch and a drive wheel you will be on easy street!

Are you saying that 89 lbs is pretty much the perfect weight for a wife

I know more information than you all want but here is a screen shot of the range I normally go to that is run by ODNR ... so depending on where and what i am shooting there is a ton of walking that wears on my southern extremities ... so now i can take multiple rifles for different range yardage ...

If they would allow vehicles to enter on the far right of the 100 yd range, stop at bench, drop gear then proceed towards the left, it would make so much sense. The area behind the benches and parking is already gravel.

Man that wagon looks very similiar to my daughters american flyer wagon, the new ones you can get are cloth just like yours except red. I had the metal one many moons ago. I might be able to use it for double duty.

It is worth every cent. I started using a Coleman model recently. Love'em.

Good luck - keep shooting.

When I go to my nephew's ball games, almost everyone has a collapsible wagon. I got one and use it more than I expected. I use it a lot for bank fishing the small lakes at local parks. Sure beats lugging a minnow bucket around. Used it this weekend to haul around some dirt, mulch and plants for the gardens. I was probably getting close the weight limit, but it handled it. Got to remember to get my wheel barrow back from who I loaned it to.

I just put the rifles for scale. This cart hauls gongs, t-posts, sledge, ammo crates and folding chair. I can add thin plywood panels for more height if needed.
