Update for the upcoming shoot/Show......Anyway, one major stop for me for this show was to get with the steel target guys. Had a lengthy chat with those boys on Saturday. They went back to their shop that night and gathered up a mess of hanging steel for me. Some were culls from an ooops cut with the plasma CNC but they are still viable ar500 steel targets. The cool thing is they are 1/4” steel and will respond well with airgun impacts. Most of their steel in 3/8 or 1/2”. I have a deer silhouette and a coyote and many hangers for the walking trail shoot. I managed to finagle a longer range “know your limits” set up from 10” down to 1” diameters for the big bore guys that are liking the long range challenges. Eric

EricWhat do you have or plan to make for hanging all that steel? Either way, I am sure you will set them up at various distances for us spring guys as well as the air cannon guys too.I was going to bring my mobile steel targets hung from a welded rebar "T" but it will pale in comparison to all those you snagged.I do plan on making a wood target holder for golf tees and paint balls like I had last year. That seemed to get a lot of usage.
It wasn't long before we found out that a golf ball sends pellets back about as fast as they go out. End of contest.
