[QUOTE="Mad Professor, post: 2946302, member: 5316"] Steel Challenge has 8 different setups consisting of 5 targets of various sizes or distances. Most are shot in any order but will have a designated "stop" plate which will be the last plate you have to hit. The stages are listed at the bottom of the rules page.
