Mojoe Posted May 13, 2015 Report Share Posted May 13, 2015 That $3300 is just getting the dirt. Now to move it and shape it can be another $75 an hour for that equipment to be operated, with a 4 hr minimum for time. Add in the cost of 15 AR500 targets, the cost of frames or a way to hang them, and then any other target stands. Yeah, shooting is really fun though. After.

Hwilli1647545487 Posted May 13, 2015 Report Share Posted May 13, 2015 I'm planning on building a retaining wall cut down on the amount I need. Getting the dirt back in where I need it is going to be logistically challenging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hwilli1647545487 Posted May 13, 2015 Report Share Posted May 13, 2015 Didn't you just buy a really nice wheelbarrow? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mojoe Posted May 13, 2015 Report Share Posted May 13, 2015 Have wheel barrel, will travel. Retaining wall and dirt is likely the way to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radio Flyer1647545514 Posted May 14, 2015 Report Share Posted May 14, 2015 I'd help as well. I just need a heads up so I can get a weekend day off work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diamonds Posted May 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2015 Yep, I'll help... But then again, you have to think about chucking out 5k+ in order to get started. Yikes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojoe Posted May 14, 2015 Report Share Posted May 14, 2015 It doesn't sound like Howard's setup will run all that much. We'll have to see how much dirt is needed. It is sounding like a quarter of what I was calculating above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diamonds Posted May 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2015 Oh, ok. I'm able to help either way! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
