Hello,

I'm looking for steel challenge targets, preferably in Canada. Specifically, I'm looking for two 12" plates and one 10"plate, complete with cap and base. I know MGM has them, but is there any Canadian provider worth considering?

Thanks
 
Try contacting Sheldoon here on CGN. His company (Anything Metal in Prince George) already makes Pepper Poppers and other kinds of metal targets.
 
Jumping Targets Canada brings in AR 500 targets of various types from a manufacturer in Utah. Wharehouse is in Edmonton, but will ship anywhere FedEx wants to drive. Website is www.jumpingtargets.com, you can order right off the site but not all products on the site are in stock in Canada. Canadian orders are forwarded to the Canadian distributor regardless. You can cut out one step of the process by contacting them directly at JumpingTargetsCanada@gmail.com
 
I don't normally put product on the site until it is available, they are from Caldwell and my apologies they are AR-550 steel. Specs from Manufacturer below.

It comes complete with a freestanding frame, chains and gong. The overall size of the target system is 38 in. wide by 33 in. tall.The gong has a 10 in. diameter and is 3/8 inch thick. The center of the target hangs 18 in. above the ground. Weighs approximately 21 pounds.Portability to and from the range is not problem with the Magnum Rifle Gong. The frame is constructed of steel tubing which requires no tools to assemble or disassemble, and entire system packs down for easy transportation. The complete system weighs only 25 pounds. Constructed of industry leading AR-550 steel tested to a Brinell hardness of 550, the Magnum Rifle Gong is designed to withstand bullet impacts without compromising the gong integrity.

He should rethink his plates.
I'm thinking his IPSC section should be massively updated as well...

What don't you like about them? I was going to get a couple gongs this summer and was going to get them from him because his some what close and prices seems reasonable. I'm curious as to what could be done differently about them.

Which targets did you get from them? I took a look at their website but their targets seem very basic and there isn't a lot of variety.

Simple 5" square plates. They have a tab welded on the back to facilitate mounting.
We hung them using strips of conveyor belt material.

When hit the targets would flip and flop... and quickly settle still for the next hit.
