Description
This 1/2″ AR550 speed rack is designed for centerfire handgun use and rifles up to .300 Win Mag. Rifles shooting over 2800 FPS muzzle velocity should be used no closer than 150 yards, in addition, long action rifles should be used no closer than 200 yards. These are great targets for clubs, instructors, and individuals.
We rate our AR550 steel Target for the same distances as our AR500. AR550 is significantly harder, and mitigates the ‘pitting’ effect better than AR500. This is especially noticeable with higher velocity rounds, such as .223/5.556 NATO. For more information, check out our article “AR500 Vs. AR550. What’s the Difference?”. There’s a video testing it out there as well, with a side-by-side comparison!
Speed Rack includes 5 of our 1/2″ AR550 8″ static targets, along with speed rack hangers to attach to the cross-member 2×4. Legs are made of our already proven 40″ EMT Conduit legs for support where targets sit about 24″ off the ground. This results in an affordable target system that is easy to set up and even easier to use. Just slide the targets over the cross beam using the supplied brackets, screw into place, and enjoy a completely portable plate rack experience that allows the shooter a huge amount of customization options.
For a custom target set, please see the Speed Rack Hanger and purchase any of our static targets separately.
With all the mounting hardware included, you just need to provide the 2×4 (if you add EMT legs).
Targets ship unpainted. Shipping is priced to the lower 48 only and will ship via best method. Contact customerservice@shootsteel.com for additional shipping inquiries.
