The Target Man™ DIY “Do-It-Yourself” AR550 Dueling Tree Target Kit | Extreme High Hardness
NEW- AR550 DIY Dueling Tree Target Kit! The AR550 DIY Dueling Tree Target Kit is designed to provide the shooter with extreme wear resistance due to its extreme high hardness. With a 10% increase in hardness, our DIY AR550 Dueling Tree Target Kit is sure to provide you with a lifetime of fun! Though we still rate them to withstand the same abuse as our AR500 Dueling Tree Target Kits, the added hardness provides a little extra “insurance” against and early target fatigue and a definite increase in life expectancy.
Please note: The DIY Dueling Tree is designed to save you a ton of money! If you're not a welder, we do offer dueling trees that are already built and ready to go. Please check our reactive target category for the pre-built dueling tree. Absolutely nothing for you to do or source if you go that route.
A TTM Original! This is for the “Do-It-Yourselfer” who has access to a welder! Make your own dueling tree at a fraction of the cost compared to purchasing one that is pre-built. Constructed from 3/8″ AR550 ballistic grade steel, these paddles can take some severe abuse! Each AR550 paddle measures 6″ in diameter. Shoot with any pistol/magnum round from any safe distance (we highly recommend a minimum of 10 yards for maximum safety)! Shoot with high-caliber (ball ammo) center-fire weapons traveling 3200 feet per second (FPS) or less from 100 yards. We have sold thousands of these kits and everyone loves how easy this tree is to build!
Angle iron measurements:
4 paddle tree- 46"
6 paddle tree- 66"
8 paddle tree- 84"
INCLUDED INSTRUCTIONS! Building this dueling tree is super easy!
Optional .22LR Paddles: We have added optional paddles so shooters can use .22LR ammo (assuming you can find it)! Ammo is expensive, so our newly added 1/4″ A36 Hot Rolled Pickled and Oiled (HRPO) paddles are sure to react with this light caliber ammo. Designed for .22 roundsonly. You risk damage to the target should you shoot with higher caliber ammunition!
Optional Pivot Tube Upgrade: As an option, we've added BEEFY 1.5″ DOM pivot tubes. The DOM pivot tubes provide extreme resistance to wear and are twice the thickness of our our standard pivot tubes provided with the kit. Your dueling tree will get a lot more life from the additional strength of the thicker walled pivot tubes. Well worth the upgrade!
Recommendations: When building your tree, we recommend purchasing 1.5″ angle iron in .25 thickness. The height of the tree is up to you. Also, when welding the angle iron to the base, always have the top of the angle iron leaned toward the shooter, with the “V” facing the shooter as well (to protect the pivot tube). This way gravity will keep the targets to either the left or right position and you won't have to worry about them getting stuck.
Don't forget to add our Multi-Purpose Base (MPB). The MPB is configured to accept the angle iron at a 22 degree lean. No guess work on how to set up your tree. Plus, the MPB can be used for ANY of our reactive target systems. Check it out!
