you're welcome, I just happen to be in the process of redoing my backyard "range" and it popped up in my newsfeed from a group I belong to, size wise it will be perfect for 20 yards, build an enclosure with a 2" thick white oak backstop, mound dirt and mulch over it, no one will know it's even there unless they're looking out my shop door.

Update...
I put 4 in the cart and it applied the discount. Then it gave me the free shipping option that I didn't get when ordering just one.
I pressed 'play' and now have 4 of them on the way for less than $20.
Great deal.... thanks.

Title: Re: Target Deal
Post by: mrbulk on May 15, 2021, 07:16:35 PM
Found a convenient way to use mine:

1) plastic tub from either Home Depot or Lowes (I forget and label is long gone)

2) folded up inside (it just kinda drops down automatic-like when tilted back)

3) deployed and ready for shootin'!

I recommend a backer board inside, as well as a way to lock down the front legs in case of movement (although have not shot at it yet).

Just in case anyone is wondering, the metal plate used to make the paddles is 25/128" thick, or a bit over 3/16". Looks like they will stand up to rather powerful airguns, maybe even rimfire...?

I ordered 2 for me and 2 for the friend that bought my Maximus. Yes, they are rated for 22LR. Much heavier than the ones I have rated for airguns.
Title: Re: Target Deal
Post by: Hawkeye51 on May 17, 2021, 05:39:27 PM
Got mine today. AWSOME.  Heavy duty and should last a long time. Big enough for 50 yards plus. My current set up is too small for more than 30 yards free hand.

Thank you Skyowa for the heads up on this deal.
My four showed up today.  If I had paid full price I would have been happy.


Didn't have a lot of time but I broke out one of my Umarex Fusions (177 CO2) and at at 50' or so with 8.2s the smack was there but not enough energy to flip those heavy spinners up and over.


Grabbed my 22 XS60C  shooting 16s and that threw them up there.
My PP750 in 22 shooting 16s did the same and the size of the targets are great for me shooting offhand with the 750.


I sure do miss having 20/15 vision.  :(


PS the stickers are a joke.  the adhesive is worthless

Everyone should wear safety glasses when shooting these targets. There will be ricochets from shooting guns without enough power to flip the targets. Stay safe

My 4 sets are scheduled to arrive on Thursday along with an LED light bar I ordered for Betty Lou's ATV.
A while back I gave a classic Daisy to the grandson of the owner of one of the ATV/RV parks we frequent. My original plan was to gift him one of these targets as well. However, on second thought, that is not such a good idea considering he is shooting BBs out of the gun. He only shoots under his parent's supervision but I still think he is too young to understand the dangers of ricochet with BBs.
I am basing my decision on my own experience when I was that young. I would sneak off at any opportunity with my BB gun and I would be left to my own devises in safety... you could say that many of my adventures were below the line separating right and wrong...  :o

I got mine yesterday. I can’t wait to set them up Saturday. I’ll likely dip the paddles in yellow paint tonight and save the stickers for paper targets. I’ll be setting them up to shoot at 20 & 30 meters maybe even 40 meters for my .22 pellet rifles.
Title: Re: Target Deal

I've had one of these for some time now along with a 6 paddle set that I made. I always used bright orange safety paint to repaint the paddles when needed. I'll be painting these the same way. I tried yellow but orange seemed to be more visible at night with lights on them.

BBs will DEFINITELY come back at you, ask me how I know. One put a chip in my polycarbonate lens on my glassed. Target was about 20 yards away if I remember correctly,  I figured I was plenty far enough away. "Bing"!!!

Just curious what the advantage of making this emulsion would be over just spray painting it white?

Many reasons: no buildup, instant usability, better visibility of strikes, lower cost, easy application, high contrast and simplicity.

I painted all my steel for decades shooting PB and it worked fine for high velocity rounds but at 50y, pellets just dont have the energy to penetrate the many layers of paint so all my small AG targets now have the Bell Target 'paint'.

I think my favorite part is that I can just wipe all the emulsion off, have clean steel (no rust at all) and reapply if I get mower debris or bugs on them and start with a new surface.

That picture above was after a dozen sessions of shooting and I just wiped an acid brush across the surface to spread out the emulsion already on the surface and just add a drop to the brush when needed to cover the strikes.
Title: Re: Target Deal
Post by: Booder98 on May 19, 2021, 09:44:54 AM
Mine came yesterday.  It's a little too solid for my QB78 at 20 yards; the lower targets just sway rather than flip around.  That's no big deal for me, though.  Well worth the $5.
Title: Re: Target Deal

Post by: avator on May 21, 2021, 01:15:40 PM
Our 4 sets arrived yesterday.. one day early from original estimated delivery date.

And you guys are right, these are thicker than the original Walmart one.

Betty Lou and I were outside until 9pm last night. We are reorganizing the shooting range. We've been spending most of our time lately RVing and playing in the mud with the ATVs so our shooting has taken a backseat. We expect a fellow GTA member to visit over the 1st weekend in June so we are getting things back in shape for a great time shooting and hanging out.

This deal came along in perfect timing.... thanks again.
Title: Re: Target Deal
Post by: Ordinary Average Guy on May 21, 2021, 03:01:48 PM
every pellet I've thrown at these things literally disappear into a cloud of dust and debris with just a little flat disc of lead left, and the only damage to the targets is chipped paint.
Title: Re: Target Deal
Post by: avator on May 21, 2021, 03:35:25 PM
Good to hear because I am going to throw some serious lead at them. We're talking 40+fpe at 40 yards <> with .25 cal.

I have 3 of these and just ordered 2 more.
At less than $5 each these targets are a fantastic deal.

I opened one target and the spinners are really solid, frame is solid too.
I can shoot at these 5/16 - 3/8 steel balls (from a slingshot) without fear of breaking them.

Had fun with it today.  ~38 yards with a .22 Fortitude & SAM.  Couldn’t get them to flip over though!
Title: Re: Target Deal
Post by: mwgm2020 on May 22, 2021, 03:09:23 AM
Thank you. I ordered one while traveling and it was delivered by the time I returned. The lollipops are thick and appear heavy enough for 22LR. The frame’s wire is definitely only AG gauge. And it comes with a sheet of target stickers.

Ive been shooting it at 28 yards and the .177 has a hard time getting the lower targets to swing up and stay. The fortitude .22 has no problem.

Definitely worth the $4 delivered.

 I have not un boxed mine as of yet, but do have a couple sets rated for rimfire, and I can get them to flip if hit lower than center, it does take the perfect hit to flip.
 Guess I better catch up on my airgun related activities.  :-[
Title: Re: Target Deal
Post by: Jshooter71 on May 22, 2021, 09:30:55 AM
I’m going to give mine a try today with the Parrus .22 at 20 & 30 meters, first. I’ll try some other rifles after that & take note of which ones can flip them or not at what distances.
Title: Re: Target Deal
Post by: Bunyboyz on May 22, 2021, 06:01:42 PM
These certainly take some power to flip. My .22 shoots over 1000 FPS at 18 grains. I don’t know if I’m hitting it to hard or not hard enough at 75 feet.

It’s heavy duty unlike the targets you see at Walmart

 I finally got around to opening one of mine, they do seem very close to .22 rimfire quality, right before opening 'I found my cans of florescent spray paint so it got a paint job right away, when it cools down I will put it to the flip test.

I've got mine mounted straight up and not leaning back. My .177 Stormrider is shooting 10.5 CPUMs at 800 fps and easily flips the paddles at 20 yards.

I shot mine at 30 meters with my Walther Parrus .22 (23.75 FPE) and my Walther LGU .22 (15.66 FPE) and they flipped them flawlessly. I also shot it at 20 meters with my FDAR XS60C .177 (10.5 FPE), with perfect center paddle shots it still flipped them & reset every time. I went back & ordered 5 sets.  8)

Thanks for this super sweet deal!  $4.60!!!

Had fun with it today.  ~38 yards with a .22 Fortitude & SAM.  Couldn’t get them to flip over though!

They flipped fine today though!  ::) IDK.

Very fun. Very very fun.


Now why are folks buying so many? What am I missing?  Do I need to get a second one?

I'm going to redo my range with them. I like them a lot better than the Crosman spinners I'm using now. The Crosman paddles are bigger but thinner, so I'm going to back them out further and use these new ones in closer because they will hold up better to 25 caliber hits.

Not So Bright David Moment, ahead:

I "painted" my paddles and set the target on the freshly mowed ground. Sauntered back to my shooting bench, sat down, pulled the lever back on the .25 DARling, pushed the slug home, all 46 grains of her, sighted the scope at 50 yards, sqweeeeezed the trigger... SPLAT! The paddle went up and straight down.  :(

4 more slugs, 4 more hits, no paddles stayed up!

Sigh!

Yes, it's true, I didn't think about the reset bar, it was blocking the paddles from mounting the bar so once I moved the support bars to the front, low-and-behold, I got all four paddles on the bar and hit the release....

Rapture

Likewise.  I plan on setting one up at 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, and 50 yards.  That's why I ordered seven.

I usually make my own spinners but I can't make these for this price.

I have bought two of their HPA hand pumps.  The price was right.  The first one lasted a year even though I used the wrong oil.  I bought a second one and fixed the first.

My .25 Avenger is a bit too much for them at 35 - 40yds. if they are just free standing. I'm going to secure them to a board like I did my other ones.
The avenger does not damage the flippers but it will knock the whole target off it's feet.

Bill, I stuck some small tubing in the ground that lifts them up about 16" up from the ground. The legs just slip into them. It works great.

I used washer head screws to clamp down on the support rods, a .22 slinging a 21gr pellet will knock it around at 25 yards, but I'm going to use conduit to set them in at the range at 25 and 50, gotta have them high enough if I miss the round hits the berm instead of the ground. But steel targets are allowed so we're good

I painted 5 of these yellow this morning.  They are so nice and they will work perfectly into future plans for another spinner rack if I choose to use them that way.

I've discovered that I can paint the back orange as they are easily reversed.

I admit I like these so well that I've order 5 additional sets.

Bonus is that I'll have 10 sets x10 target spots each set = 100 target stickers free

I'm trying to come up with a vertical rack to stack four or five of them, one above the other with the bottom one a foot off the ground.

I've got and idea and a rough sketch.
I may shorten it to hold only two.  I need to show the sketch to my son and see what we can do.

They will be able to slide into tubes welded on vertical uprights (1" sq tubing) so they can easily be pulled out and flipped over to reveal a freshly painted side.

This is my solution. I'm clearing some small trees to extend my range, so I decided to put them to good use. A 3/8 spade bit and some long screws is all it took. Raising them up higher means I don't have to shoot through the fence in the back yard.

No, they're standing up straight. They still work if you hit them with enough energy, but I'm really not too concerned about it. As long as I can see them swinging or hear a ding, I know I have a hit.

Had a little time before work this morning so I slipped outside with my coffee. Before I knew it I had collected a 1x12x4' board and 12 electrical wiring staples. I spaced 3 targets evenly on the board and drove the staples in around the legs to lock them onto the board. Now it's a one piece setup with 3 sets of resettable flipper targets. This will be incorporated into my 'birdcage' target fixture. You'll understand once I'm finished and post pictures.

Typically these bargain deals go away fast... this one is unique in how long it's survived.

I did a walk through on my range with the new spinners installed. I've got more work to do but it works for now. The last spinners are 60 yards from where I normally shoot from, but I can back up and get 75 out of it.

Thanks! I complain about not having a 100 yards sometimes but I know I'm lucky to have what I do. I need to get off my butt, fire up the chainsaw and clear some more trees and make 100 a reality.

The last and final five that I ordered show they're out for delivery.  That will bring my total to 10.

I must say I really like these targets and the fact that I can shoot them with my .22lr makes them all the more useful.

Mine too, that’ll make 7 sets for me.  ;D

Yesterday, after shooting I left my 2 sets inside my 30 meter target boxes. I need to close the holes in the back with new steel and fill the holes with duct-seal. After I level the other target boxes, I’ll do the same and leave them in their respective target boxes.  8)

Whoa, what a plinking heaven setup, Cap! Not to mention the distance boxes in the - distance...

Took one to the range this morning, at 50 yards with an H&N "18" 18.13gr, the Cayden hits more than hard enough to flip the paddles ")

https://youtu.be/ha_0Si65bR8

Hey, with that Cayden you have a two-in-one target, a resetting one plus a top spinner at the same time.

     I have them at 50 and 75 yards. These are a great bargain and provide a very satisfying smack when hit!  Even if you just stole the spinners off it to repurpose, these are well worth it. A reactive target is big fun and a welcome break from paper targets.

Mini Bud Light cans placed upside down on  3" drywall screws in a 4x4. Not only do you have to knock them down, you also have to rip them off the screws. This requires shot placement to the sweet spots. Center shots just blow holes in the cans. Rim shots are the key...  ;)

Just got mine yesterday. These things are thick and heavy! My .177 won’t flip them at 10 yards.... until I took a grinder to the back of the paddle and drilled some holes in the neck.
 Now I can flip all 4 at 40 yards with a .177 and my .22 doesn’t damage it at all. Took some time too, to grind each paddle took close to 30min of just grinding. About 5 minutes of drilling.
So yes a long project, but well worth it in the end!

I dropped 10 of my 46gr .25 pellets on the paddles at 50 yards and they sure did flip the paddles.... and then some! They knocked the bar too far upon impact and got released from the hold. The release paddle did 4 good spins then one last lazy one.

I think the .25 with 46gr slugs is a little hot...  ::)

     Mine are flipping just fine at 75 yards with 18.13’s @ 890fps. Sometimes the last outside paddle will knock the opposite outside paddle back down, so I aim a little higher and the last one will stay up. Again, thanks for posting about these, big bargain when bargains seem rare.

I drilled holes on an an angle in a 6' 4x4 today. I drilled them for the targets to lean forward and function as intended. I also drilled the holes so the legs would fit in snug about 2" deep. Works great.

I drilled a bunch of holes in the back of the paddles and lightened it up. Don’t drill too deep of course. Now I can flip em at 30 yards with a 2240 carbine. My .177 break barrel and gauntlet flip em at 40 yards after the mod.

I have 3 sets, first set I spent 2+ hours grinding it down. So I ended up drilling the holes on the other 2 sets in much less time. Both ways work very well. Still feel solid and no bending or denting even with my .22LR

Greg my R7 shooting 8.64 gr wouldn't flip them   except every once in a while.  I moved it to 20 yards and didn't have any problems flipping them at that distance.

Hmmm?  Even the mighty FWB Sport won't flip 'em at 25 ysrds with 8.64 gr. H&N FTT'S. I guess I could move 'em in closer, but what's the fun in that?
Looks like Austin has a solution for that Greg.

I ended up with twelve of these. Six are on the ground currently and six are still in their boxes.
Too good of a deal to pass up.

Haha, don't think the spinners will hold up as well with .30 cal rounds flying into them  ;)

But it'll be fun to see!

I'm amazed it is still working.  They must have seriously overstocked.
