[QUOTE="ARlife4me, post: 3044716, member: 105694"] I've seen some 550 plate at reasonable prices, but the 1/2" 550 works for me. On a few other forums there's been post about what ranges they go to and ammo they can't use due to putting holes thru the 500 plates. That's utter nonsense of reasoning, but maybe on very thin 500 it could happen? The lap projectiles will not damage the plate enough when using 1/2" (I can't speak for thinner plating). Comparisons on plate type using monos (which I've shot on the same plate and lap also only does minor dings/dents). Your statement was about shooter's needs if needing a heavier duty plate and I was going off and adding onto that. [/QUOTE]
