About 20 years ago I built a running man target using two 8 inch posts with a 1 inch cable strung tight between them and a target carrier for golding sillohet targets on a piece of homosote, riding on pulley wheels on the cable. It was hooked up to a reversible electric motor and run by a Honda portable generator. The only thing that could be damaged was the carrier and it was protected by a steel plate. Of course we were only using handguns, .38 sp and .357 mag. Your device is inovative.
the most of the parts i used is made in steel, they are pretty stable,
i hope they hold together for a bad shot
this is the platform that holds the target,
if it breaks its just time for a beer and an evening int the garage
