First off, NEVER go down range if someone is shooting. If there is a Range Officer, they will normally call for periodic cease-fires to reset targets. If there isn't an RO, then it's up to you to ask for a cease fire. The target stand doesn't need to be anything fancy. I use a T-shaped 2X4 frame in a old Christmas tree stand. I think the total cost was $4. Always wear hearing and eye protection at the range. Get muffs or plugs you're comfortable enough with to wear for the length of your range trip, that way you won't forget to put them back in/on after a cease-fire. I like the soft disposable plugs from E-A-R, but that may have something to do with me wearing them for 10 hours a day at work. (Also my boss gives me a box each year, so I can't beat the price.)
