[QUOTE="biednick, post: 3010409, member: 123604"] Definitely go 1/2" or thicker AR500. I'd probably bump it up to 5/8 for the close targets if you'll be shooting big guns like cheytacs at them. As far as the supplier, check with whoever you/the owner of the plasma cutter usually uses. Anyone running a machine that big is going to know at least a few local suppliers who should be able to get it for you. Freight is going to be expensive if you can't get it locally. Personally I'd think about smaller targets too. 24x24 is a huge target up close. I'd keep most of them in the 2-3 MOA range, and probably do a couple sizes at some of the closer targets. [/QUOTE]
