I need some fresh ideas on how to address the following problem with my steel targets:
The Problem:
My target stand is constantly toppling over after 308 at 200 and 300 yards (range max distance)
I’ve kind of run out of ideas on how to keep things upright so I’m hoping that someone has some suggestions

The Background Info:
- I’m currently using a ShootSteel Static Target stand with a 6” plate. I’m primarily shooting .308 and .260 Rem at it
- I’ve tried sand bags on both sides of the stand but the spalling eventually shreds them and the sand or gravel spills out and
- I’ve tried long garden spikes but the soil is so sandy at my range that they really can’t bite into ground and will get ripped out after about 20 rounds
- I though about using a T-post as a stand but it apparently violates the club rules to pound them into the ground
- I’m currently using a hanging 2x4 stand to hang the gong but it’s a pain in the butt waiting for the thing to stop swinging
