    Works for me
  

*by J***W on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 29, 2023*

I currently have this target set in my 25 yard backstop for pistol use. I've primarily fired at it with 9mm 124/147 FMJ ammo and have no complaints. At first I thought the 3/8" steel had been dimpled by the FMJ ammo, but on closer examination I found it to be as smooth as the day it arrived. Very satisfied with this purchase.

    It wasn't the performance I expected, but it did what it was supposed to do (stop bullets)
  

*by S***K on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 29, 2019*

I'm going to try and provide A LOT of context for my experience with this plate.  It's very important that I do that because if I just post up some pics you will likely thing they are made out of aluminum and not AR500 steel.  So here's my story and the context for the pics that I posted.  Please read before you make assumptions based on the pics.So friends of mine flew/drove in for a "Texas Summer Shootout 2019".  All of us are either veterans or former LEO's. Myself and my SF brother, a Marine and a couple of LEO's most of us veterans of one thing or the other, experienced shooters and a couple of us very experienced shooters and trainers (weapons training).  So that's the "posse".Here is the breakdown of our range day and night.  We had a 9 hour day shoot and later around midnight, hit the range again for a night shoot with nods. In all, we expended approx 2,500 rounds (Breakdown of ammo type is below)  The BULK of our shooting was at 75-100m.  During the day we did NMQ (Navy quals) on PAPER.  We also did some movement to contact/2 man team drills where we moved from 75-25m, and at 25m, we typically engaged the target with approx. 4-5 rds. (Think Mozambique)  The Night shoot was a 50-25m (movement to contact/target plates again shooting while moving, so it wasn't a full mag dump or anything like that. Controlled fire using comms between two shooters, multiple targets (plates and paper)Breakdown of ammo used:55gr FMJ:  85%62gr FMJ:  10%77gr SMK:  5% (Black Hills so we didn't blast a lot of this just due to cost)220gr 300blk subs:  100rds**We did not use armor-piercing ammo.  (This is very important to note)Weapons: (to understand velocity)10.3-12.5 SBR's ( 100-25m)  (the majority of ammo shot through these rifles)14.5-18" SPR (100m)  (maybe 500 rds through these)300BLK subs (100m)Plate usage:AR500 Silhouette:  45%  (The item in this review)AR550 Gong 10":  30%AR550 Gong 8":  25%  (this percentage includes paper targets)I am fully aware of the recommendations on caliber/grain and distances mentioned in the description and also in the safety statements.  But this is why I give context for our shooting because we did, in fact, exceed those parameters, I will say that I have always exceeded those parameters because you should "train as you fight" and not all gunfights occur at 100 plus meters/yards.These plates did not perform as well as my gongs and for a very valid reason.  AR550 is a harder steel than AR500.  I'll post a pic of one of my gongs just for reference, but keep in mind it's almost 18 months old.Will I buy these plates again?  I would buy these but only if I'm planning on shooting distances greater than or maybe equal to 100m. Hits did give us a very good (loud) feedback at all distances, so that was good.  I don't think pockmarks/divots that you see are the fault of any manufacturing process, I believe it's due to the AR500 steel.  These were well-made plates, well cut/machined.  From that perspective, these are great plates, and I would also give the seller the benefit of doubt and say that in distances >= 100+ parameters, they will probably hold up well, but the fact is we shot one side of this plate out.  It is INOP, unusable as is.  But to highlight the fact (once again) we did not shoot within the sellers specified parameters.  Also, I am not advocating shooting at distances we shot at, or distances shorter than what the seller recommends and includes in their safety briefing.  My brother and I train as we fight. Or will fight, and we have learned that distance is not always greater than 100m.  We were also kitted up for whatever that's worth.Again you really need to take the photos in context with how we shot.  But at the same time, I wanted to give a range report on how the plates did within OUR parameters.  I hope this helps someone out.

    Takes hits like a champ, rings like a bell
  

*by C***E on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 20, 2020*

I brought this to a range session we had through work (law enforcement).  I have the large silhouette and  mounted it on a wooden 2x4 with the spring mounted t-post kit and the 4-legged metal base.  I set it up when I first got to the range around 9am, and the wooden 2x4 finally gave up the ghost and cracked in half around 4pm.  We shot literally thousands of rounds at it - pistol and rifle (9mm, .40, .45, and .223).  This beast chewed up everything we shot at it.Pistol distances were as close as 15 yards, while rifle distances were around 65 - 150 yards, but the majority were at 65 yards.  There were only some very shallow surface dimples left in the target by the end of the shooting session.  A quick coat of spray paint and it looks almost new again.It lets out a very satisfying ring when struck, and is easily heard even with earmuffs or plugs.  It was easily the most popular target for everyone to shoot.  If you are going to get one of these, spend the extra money on the spring mounted t-post and base.  This thing is a blast to shoot and I highly recommend it.
