[QUOTE="Robbin, post: 374019, member: 12246"] Nothing is as frustrating as not being able to tell WHERE you missed. And if you're shooting 1000 yards, you will miss, a lot. Unless you have a backstop that allows you to see your impact points clearly, but the biggest steel you can afford. I have 4" 8" 12" and 16", but I also have a 2 foot by 3 foot steel. If you're going to buy ONE steel, get the biggest you can afford. Also, mild steel will get beat up, and even when you paint it, it's VERY hard to see hits at 1000 yards, you end up driving back and forth. Get AR550, past 500 yards you can't scratch it with a 300RUM. When you paint it, it looks new and you can see hits at 1000 yards. If I had ONE steel to buy, it would be the BIG STEEL. You just draw a small circle to shoot at. That said, an AR550 2X3 costs some bucks. Shooting Steel is a LOT MORE FUN. Robbin gun) [/QUOTE]
