I use the exact same thing along with a Redneck Blind Chair for long range depredation. It gives me a solid place to rest my right elbow. My only difference is I use a Caldwell Rock rest up front. I can lay out everything I need on the table. Rangefinder, Wind Meter, Binos, Ammo, refreshments, etc. I do angle the table longways to give me more room between rests. My table legs fold and the table itself folds into a 30"x30" square with a carry strap.Used these for years. Cheap, light, compact, more than solid enough and very comfortable. Standard White banquet table with folding legs. Find the tables easier to get up and down from, shooting angle is easier to adjust, amenable to left or right shooters and chair can move back and forth to accommodate shooter's size. I also like having a back on the chair for thoose long days in the gopher fields. The truck makes for great shade when it is hot out.
Cabelas still sells the Herters Bench they just list them under a bunch of different names. They are 200 Canadian.

[/QUOTE]Love your front porch and your shooting table but the best part was seeing the scissor jack shooting pad you made was breath taking you think on the same level as me . Wish I had ran into you in my travels I think would have got alone very well as men and hunters. built a Corian top to cover the maple on the br pivot bench. Solid surface with drip edges, should protect the butcher block from any rain or snow that blows under the porch....

I bought one of the Demo DOA benches years ago and is my go to portable bench. Solid as a rock and sets up quicklyVery surprised to not see DOA mentioned yet. Years ago, I tried a couple of the Cabelas and similar retail models available and wasn't happy with them. I 'bit the bullet' and shelled out big bucks for what my understanding is the nicest portable bench available on the market. Made in Utah, very high quality, and extremely stable. It looks like the newest Caldwell model (BR pivot) has some striking similarities. No idea if there was and kind of deal between companies there.
I bought a demo model to save a few bucks, has worked great for me

For decades we have shot grass rats (PDs) on private ranches in WY where we are permited to ride our quads to the best shooting. As such, I have settled on using a work bench made by Husky and purchased at my local Home Depot. Just checked and its only $99. I combine that with a BlackOut® Comfort Max 360 Mag Elite Blind Chair,$120, from Cabela's which gives me solid contact with the ground. It also has a sturdy back to lean on while glassing or letting the gunsmoke clear. Both strap down on the rear rack and travel nicely. I have hunted with friends using more elaborate systems which are hard transport and not nearly as versital or comfortable as my system.
