The Birchwood Casey T-Post Gong Target Mount transforms standard fence posts into professional reactive shooting targets. This robust mounting system accommodates steel gong targets from 6 to 12 inches, providing shooters with instant audible and visual feedback for improved marksmanship training.
What Makes This Different
Unlike flimsy chain hangers that break after minimal use, this engineered mounting system features heavy-duty steel construction with reinforced pivot points. The adjustable height mechanism allows precise target positioning from 36 to 60 inches, while the swing-away design absorbs bullet impact energy to prevent target damage. Standard T-posts become stable shooting platforms rated for centerfire rifle cartridges up to .308 Winchester.
Key Features

Field testing demonstrates consistent performance across temperature ranges from -20°F to 120°F. The pivot mechanism maintains smooth operation after thousands of impacts, while the clamp system holds position without slippage during extended shooting sessions. Competitive shooters appreciate the consistent target presentation, while training facilities value the reduced setup time and equipment longevity.
