Description
Setting up steel targets shouldn't be a hassle, and Birchwood Casey's Double Hook Ground Stake keeps it simple. You stomp it into the ground, hang your target on the two hooks, and you're shooting. No stands to assemble, no bolts to fumble with in the cold. The whole thing is cut from 3/8" AR500 steel, the same tough plate used in quality target faces, so it takes a beating from the occasional errant round without folding or bending.
What the Double Hook Design Actually Buys You
The two-hook layout is the real advantage here over single-hook stakes. It grabs targets built with two 1/2" mounting holes and holds them at a fixed angle, so your gong or silhouette hangs true instead of spinning around every time you ring it. That steadiness matters when you're calling shots or running a timed drill and don't want to walk downrange after every string to straighten things out.
Built to Stand Out and Stand Up
The bright white powder coat isn't just for looks. It pops against dirt, brush, and shadow so you can pick up your target fast at distance, which helps a lot on overcast days or when the light's getting low. The powder coat also shrugs off weather better than bare steel, so leaving it staked out between range trips won't turn it into a rusty mess. Every hanger is precision laser cut, which means clean, burr-free edges you won't snag a glove or a target on.
Pairing It With Your Targets
This stake works best with 3/8" AR500 steel targets rated for centerfire pistol and rifle, and it plays nicely with Birchwood Casey's own gongs and silhouettes as well as most other brands using the standard 1/2" hole spacing. Softer ground like dirt, sand, or turf holds it best. Rocky or frozen hardpack will fight you, so plan your spot accordingly. It's a solid, grab-and-go piece for anyone building out a steel setup on private land or a friendly patch of range.

Frequently Asked Questions
What kind of targets fit this double hook hanger?
It's designed for targets with 1/2" mounting holes, which is the standard spacing on most AR500 steel gongs and silhouettes. The double hook setup is meant for targets with two mounting points so they hang steady instead of swinging freely. Birchwood Casey's own steel targets pair up with it directly, and most other major brands using the same hole size will work too.
How do you set up the Birchwood Casey target hanger?
You drive the stake into the ground by hand or with a boot, then hook your target onto the two hooks up top. There's no assembly or hardware involved. It holds best in softer ground like dirt, sand, or turf, so pick a spot that isn't rocky or frozen solid.
Will the hanger hold up if I accidentally hit it?
The stake is made from 3/8" AR500 steel, the same tough plate used in quality target faces, so it can take the occasional stray round without bending or breaking. The white powder coat also helps it resist rust when left staked out between trips. It's built for repeated use at the range.
Why is the hanger painted bright white?
The bright white powder coat makes the hanger easy to spot against dirt, brush, and shadow, which speeds up target acquisition at distance. It's especially handy on overcast days or in low light. The coating doubles as weather protection to keep the steel from rusting.
