3/8" AR500 Skill Target Package with T-Post Hangers

The 3/8" AR500 Skill Target Package with T-Post Hangers gives you four graduated round steel targets for building speed, accuracy and consistency across a variety of shooting drills. The package includes 12", 10", 8" and 5" round targets along with four patented zinc-plated T-post hangers. Each target is CNC laser-cut from domestic 3/8" AR500 steel. Add standard steel T-posts and you have a compact multi-target range setup. Made in the USA.

The different target sizes let you vary difficulty without changing the basic setup. Use the larger 10" and 12" targets for faster transitions and general drills, then move to the 5" and 8" plates for more demanding accuracy work. All four 3/8" AR500 targets are rated for centerfire handguns and short-action rifles through .308 Win and 6.5 Creedmoor at the proper minimum shooting distances.
