Reactive Performance
The 8″ rubber strap kits provide a lively swinging motion and louder ring than static targets. Made from self-healing material, the straps withstand repeated hits but can be replaced over time. Replacement strap kits are available separately.
Stand Setup
This plate rack mounts easily to 2×4 uprights using the included brackets. For best results, cut the cross section to 48–60 inches and the four legs between 60–80 inches. For longer-lasting legs, use conduit with our 2×4 hybrid brackets (sold separately).
Durability and Safety
All plates are CNC laser-cut from AR500 steel for long service life. Maintain safe shooting distances, and avoid steel-core or armor-piercing ammunition to prevent damage. Targets and stands ship unpainted.
