To finish this kit I used a 4' 2x4 (directions suggest using 3') and after putting it all together, it was very wobbly. Part of the issue had to do with the half-inch bolts and nuts that stick up from the bottom inside the 2x4 holder. I fixed this by drilling two holes on the bottom of the 2x4 and using wood shims on the sides. Now it fits snug like lego bricks. The way I have my target setup, it's stable enough to handle a nice breeze, but the height makes it a little top heavy. Nothing a pair of socks filled with sand throw onto the feet of the stand won't solve.The AR500 12x20 3/8" Silhouette Target is top notch. It comes painted white, the size is perfect, and the quality was better than expected. Most importantly, the sound is just what you would expect from a steal target.The target holder (cap) is simple and does the job. I would have preferred a spring or an AR500 steel hook but whats included works and can always be replaced at a later date. I may add a spring or a nicer looking grade 8 bolt at some point in the future, but it really doesn't need it.As for the stand, here is where improvements could be made. For example, I really wish the manufacturer would have added a thumb screw to the base. At the very least, it just needs a hole on the back of the stand so you can can use a screw to secure the 2x4. The length of the feet could also be a few inches longer to improve stability.The best thing about this stand is the value you get. I paid $129.99 when it went on sale after 4th of July. I looked at products from Steel Targets, Action Targets, and others. A similar setup would have easily cost $100-$200 more! So the value here is incredible. However, next time I'll get the package that doesn't include the stand and get my stand from another vendor. The include stand works, but for my purposes, I would like something that lets me move the targets without taking it apart. That's my only real complaint about this setup. IMO, that's not enough to dock a star.
