What are the risks of shooting high powered rifles at steel targets? Obviously richette is a factor, but how likely is that and what kind of damage can it do? If you were wearing eye protections would it be an issue at 100 yards?
Hopefully someone sales AR500 around here. I have been wondering what kind of steel is used for rifle targets. I want to make my own. I can weld and so can most of my friends so I want to make my own. Some of the ones people on here have listed are nice but $$$.
i know a guy in Lawton that I bought 2 sets of AR500 Steel plates from. A set is 1- 6"x6" ; 1- 8"x8" ; 1- 12"x12"...all have holes in them for hanging and a set is $120 right now.
My targets have been shot with a 7wsm, 223AI, 243AI, and 300 win mag and none have even cratered yet. (closest shot was 300yards)
