BobCo: All thread is just a piece of threaded rod. It has threads for screwing on the nuts its whole length. Yes the sell all you need at Home depot. At least here in Wi. they do. A couple other names for the board could be; sound board, high density board(hd), wood fibered insulation, or recovery board.

I made a RubberMaid RoughNeck target. Just take the large sized Rubbermaid or similiar brand, cut a square hole in the lid. I cut mine just smaller than the targets I use. Then fill it up with whatever...old clothes, plastic, carpet, rubber mud flaps, cardboard. I then used about 2" of flat cardboard as the top layer. Drop your target on and snap on the lid. It works great, is easy to transport and refill if need be. And it costs about $5. I' ve attached a pic.

I haven' t done that since...don' t want to be hearing about how I " was shooing in the house and shot the living room wall" for the next 30 years!

Dacotah, that' s a unique and great idea. I have a bunch of burlap bags and a spare tote laying around, I' ll have to give this a shot when/if my bag target gives up the ghost...
Until then, I suppose you could fill the tote with expanding foam and use broadheads with it... not sure broadheads would be easy to pull out of compacted burlap
