I just had 6 sheets of AR-500 cut into "ABC" targets (a USPSA target minus the D zone) with a CNC plasma cutter. I don't need all of these and was planning on sharing some of them. They are 3/8" thick, but Even my 1/2" thick AR-500 doesn't like plastic tipped .223 rounds at 100 yards.

I've gotten good steel at good prices from forum vender Karl at GT Targets. He is who I will go back to when I need more.

I don't always shoot a rifle, but when I do... I prefer a Firebird. Stay accurate my friends.

I bought a setup from an unnamed company a few weeks ago. Its was comparatively cheap at $55 shipped. It uses a bolt to secure the plate to the stand and after a couple hundred rounds the head stripped out and the plate fell off. The plate doesn't cover the holder either so its susceptible to missed rounds hitting it. With some minor improvements it'll work just fine but the GT targets look like an improved version for a bit more.

Contact Tom Drazy of http://www.drazymeta...vlet/StoreFront He will cut anything to size you want and has the best prices on steel and shipping. He is typically Mr. Fix-it at a lot of matches and is a CRO.

I use his steel to practice my AR with and the quality is much better than some steel I bought from Artzen in that it doesn't have the cratering.
Always practicing and learning
