    Steel AR500 Targets Coming Soon!

    We're starting to roll out our steel targets in the next couple weeks but I have a couple questions for people.

    What sizes and styles do you want? We're starting with traditional 3/8" thick AR500 round and 3/8" thick AR500 IPSC style ones.

    Do people want 1/4" AR500 for pistol?

    My club doesn’t allow steel targets at the range, so I’d personally like to see a full size body silhouette kind, or a 18” gong type

    I'd like full size and 2/3 size IDPA style targets. 3/8 so we can shoot at 15 yards.

    I'd love to see those "hostage silhouette" ones, where there's a red disc beside the head that flips side to side as you shoot it

    I've made a few A2 steel ones. Round gongs 6"-9" I like 1/2 for rifle and 3/8 for pistol. It seems to stop the sway. I made a half circle and a diamond but they're not hardened yet.

    +1 for a hostage style
    How about some animal silhouettes with a kill zone flap.
    Also I would be all over a coyote auto popper

    Steel Challenge type matches are popular at our club. With pistol, PCC and rimfire (pistol or carbine) all being popular classes. Regulation targets are 10"and 12" round and 18x24" rectangle.
    Fan of Browning Hi-Powers and both S&W and Colt revolvers

    Yes 1/4" thick for .22 plinking. Also perfect for Carbine. Much louder feedback than 3/8" with smaller calibres.
