Post by: OleTomCat on May 20, 2013, 03:47:41 AM
I built some heavy duty spinners for the Big Bore guys to slam around at the fun shoot and they gave it their best..

Nice set up. How thick are the plates?

Plates are 1/4" cold rolled steel, they were shooting them with the Rogue at about 40yds with 170gr bullet without any dents, the only way I dented them was when I was testing them and I shot them with both my .357 magnum at about 450fpe shooting gold dot jacketed hollow points and with my .22mag shooting 30gr ballistic tips at about 150fpe, also jacketed...

I will snap some pictures of the one I brought back from the shoot and post them up later...

These are definitely heavy duty.  We used some at the Fun Shoot. They held up to the big boys.

Al, is the special that Gene posted from Umarex the PCP you've been wanting. They are on sale. I enjoyed meeting you at Fun Shoot and thanks for letting me shoot your guns. You even went home with an extra gun.

Randy,

It was great meeting you sir....

I also met another UM Preacher on Sunday, he was staying at the same Hotel as the wife and I, he will be taking over for one of the UM Churches near our Home, our grandson goes to the preschool at his new Church, Knightsville United Methodist, was a very productive weekend....

I didn't see the special you are refering to, if you see it again DM it to me...
