The Premium 1/2" AR550 4-Target Swinging Steel Plate Rack delivers loud, reactive feedback for more engaging range sessions. Designed as a rugged alternative to traditional speed racks, this system is built for both pistols and rifles, providing consistent performance and long-lasting durability.
What’s Included
-
(4) 8" round AR550 steel plates, 1/2" thick
-
(4) Rubber strap kits for reactive swinging mounts
-
(4) Speed rack hangers (carriage bolt/spring not included)
-
(1) Pair of 2×4 gong brackets
Note: 2×4 lumber not included.
Reactive Performance
Each target hangs from a self-healing rubber strap, swinging backward on impact while producing a sharp, audible ring. This design offers a more dynamic experience than static mounts. Replacement strap kits are available, and the system can be expanded with our Swinging Target Hanger Kit for added versatility.
Stand Setup
The included 2×4 gong brackets make it simple to build a DIY stand. For best results, cut the cross beam to 48–60 inches and each of the four legs to 60–80 inches. Upgrade to conduit legs with our 2×4 Hybrid Brackets for improved longevity, especially when using shorter cross beams.
Durability & Safety
Cut from 1/2" AR550 steel, this rack resists pitting and edge wear better than AR500—especially noticeable with high-velocity rounds such as .223/5.56 NATO. Targets are rated for pistols at 10 yards and rifles up to .308 Win and 6.5 Creedmoor at 100+ yards. Ships unpainted.
Q&A:
Q: What calibers can I use with this plate rack?
A: Safe for pistols at 10 yards and rifles up to .308 Win or 6.5 Creedmoor at 100+ yards. For higher calibers or faster velocities, maintain greater distance.
Q: Do the straps wear out?
A: Yes, straps will wear over time, but they’re self-healing and replacements are available.
Q: How do I build the stand?
A: Use the included 2×4 gong brackets with your own 2×4s. Cut the cross beam to 48–60 inches and legs to 60–80 inches. For longer-lasting legs, use conduit with our 2×4 Hybrid Brackets.
