I finally finished my newest target, which I'll call the Patriot Challenge. (Idea came from watching Airgun Challenge on the Outdoor Channel)
The holes are 1/2", 3/4", 1", 1 1/4", & 1 1/2" with little blocks of hardwood behind them. Originally I wanted to do hinged drop downs for easy reset but for now the blocks get knocked down.
The alum plate is 3/16" thick (found in a local salvage yard) and any pellet traveling less than 600fps does no effective damage. I hit it with 950fps and the pellets left significant dings in the plate.
Amazingly, my Crosman American Classic pump with open sights and shoulder stock does the job at 11yds.

Thanks, Keith. Using my Sig MCX today, nothing was safe. Even the ones behind the 1/2" holes.

That looks fun!
I have something similar and added battery powered led lights on each end. The goal was to have the light come on when the smallest target was hit and cancel the other one out in case of simultaneous hits on the last target. I got the lights to come on with a simple metal on metal contact but that was a far as I got. I’m not smart enough. I mean I never got around to it.

Very cool idea. I'll have to give that some thought. Merry Christmas.
