Description
The Birchwood Casey 49024 is one of those simple pieces of gear that quietly earns its spot in your range bag. It gives you a stable steel base to hang gong targets from, and the whole thing goes together without a single tool. Grab a standard 2×4 post from the garage or the hardware store, drop it in, hang your gong, and you are ready to make some noise.
What Makes the 49024 Nested Stand Worth Grabbing
The standout feature here is the nested design. Instead of a bulky stand hogging space in your truck, the steel parts tuck into each other so it lays flat and travels easy. That matters when you are already hauling ammo, targets, and everything else out to the range or the back forty. When you get home, it stores in a corner without taking over the shop.
Setting Up the 2×4 Nested Steel Target Stand
Setup is about as painless as it gets. The base is built from thick steel and finished in a matte black coating to hold up to weather and repeated trips outdoors. You supply one 2×4 post, which is not included, and the stand handles the rest. From there you can hang steel gongs and get right into some plinking or reactive practice in a field, at an outdoor range, or out in the backyard.
Built for Real Range Time
This stand pairs naturally with Birchwood Casey's own line of AR500 gongs, but it will work with just about any hanging steel target you already own. It is a straightforward, no-nonsense way to set up reactive targets that ring back at you when you connect. For anyone who shoots steel regularly, having a portable base that sets up in seconds and packs down just as fast is a genuine convenience.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the 49024 nested steel target stand come with a 2×4 post?
No, the post is not included. You supply one standard 2" x 4" wood post, which slides into the stand to give you the upright for hanging targets. Any common 2×4 from a hardware store or your own scrap pile will do the job.
What kind of targets can I hang from this stand?
It is designed for hanging steel gong targets and works well with Birchwood Casey's own AR500 gongs. It will also handle most other hanging steel targets you already own. The 2×4 upright gives you flexibility on where and how high you position the gong.
Do I need tools to put the nested steel target stand together?
No tools required at all. The stand assembles by hand and comes apart just as easily. That makes setup at the range quick and keeps things simple when you are ready to pack up.
How portable is the Birchwood Casey 49024 stand?
Very. The steel parts nest into one another so the whole thing packs down flat for the trunk or range bag. It also stores neatly at home without eating up shelf or floor space.
