Hello I was wondering if I could maybe get some of y’all’s pictures and or ideas of what you use for range tables. I have a plastic fold up table, but I would like to up my game a bit. Some gentlemen in my muzzleloading group have old school wooden ironing boards and I think they are beautiful! That’s kind of the direction I want to go, but maybe someone here has some more ideas?
 
I have a fixed bench at 100 yds and a wooden pick-nick table, In addition, I built a portable shooting bench with foldable legs shown here in the video of me shooting my .75 Jeager.

if you build a bench make it tall, so you don't need to hunch over your rifle (seated). it should let you shoot in a position more like standing/hunting target/game, with open sights your cheek weld matters , if you change your mount/cheek position your sight in will/might be off. the problem is most shooting benches are made for scoped rifles so posture is not taken into account as long as eye relief is close the scoped rifle will be on.
At my club I cut wood blocks to raise the bench for open sight shooters but it is able to return to a lower for short persons or scope users. I had to add 2 2x6 on all 3 legs to raise it to my height

with that said here is a novel portable shooting bench(might need to be taller)
