[QUOTE="ICANHITHIMMAN, post: 276940, member: 10414"] There have been a few post about steel targets in the last month and I just wanted to show what happens when you use mild steel for your targets. It works but it does not last long! The steel it 1/2 thick and the rounds didnt penatrate the plate but allmost 3/4 of it. Rifle used was my Armscorp M1A in 308 win at a range of about 250yds. I was shooting LC match ammo that is loded with a 175g SMK. This is a little girls load compared to most of the things guys are shooting in here. This is a piece of mild steel I welded a piece of rebar to the back and stomped it into the ground next to my AR500 poper. [IMG]http://i302.photobucket.com/albums/nn119/ICANHITHIMMAN/metaltargets001.jpg[/IMG] This is my AR500 popper from [URL="http://www.metaltargets.com"]www.metaltargets.com[/URL] It has thousands of rounds on it mostley of 5.56 and 308 win.
