Caldwell High Caliber AR500 Steel

Heavier duty than I expected. Very happy.

I recently added the Caldwell High Caliber AR500 Steel Targets to my range setup, and they've exceeded all expectations. The 3/8" thick AR500 steel construction is incredibly durable, handling thousands of rounds without significant wear. The audible feedback is immediate and satisfying, making each hit unmistakable. The powder-coated finish not only enhances visibility but also resists corrosion, ensuring longevity even in varying weather conditions. Setting up was straightforward, and the targets are compatible with various hanging solutions, offering flexibility in arrangement. Whether I'm practicing with handguns or rifles, these targets withstand the impact, maintaining their integrity and providing consistent performance. Overall, the Caldwell AR500 Steel Targets are a valuable addition for anyone serious about shooting practice. Their durability, clarity of feedback, and ease of use make them a top choice for both beginners and seasoned shooters.

Holds up to real deal m193 5.56 out of a 16” AR from 100-300yards. M855 LAP will make a slight divot even at range but that’s to be expected.

I was skeptical when I saw this gong is made in China. But, on the range, it has proven to be of very high quality. Heat treatment seems consistent right to the very edge of the material. I've shot this plate (at 200 yards) with 5.56, 7.62x51, .308, 7.62x39, 7.92x57. Only M855, with its mild steel core, caused any deformation of the plate. Even then, only VERY minor cratering. This plate is a bit small at 200 yards but is a very manageable challenge wIth a scoped rifle. The finish is a baked epoxy type paint or maybe powder coated. It doesn't last long after the bullets start hitting though. But white spray paint fixes it right up. I haven't left it out on the range so I cant say how quickly it rusts. When I was shopping for AR500, this seemed like the most affordable optional it has definitely not disappointed me. I prefer American, when it makes sense, but I cant remember ever having been disappointed by Caldwell products.

Great quality but very small not a human size at all. 33% maybe.

Great targets. Very durable. Multitude of different ways to set them up, personanlly I like setting them up with the thick T post and their mounts also from Caldwell. They are a very good size too. I would even say they are better than the 100% sized targets as those are kind of monsters.

Perfect steel target for backyard shooting. I am tired of paper targets. I can finally hear that "ding" sound to confirm I am hitting my target between 50 to 100 yards without having to look at my spotting scope. I will definitely buying more in different sizes.

Got these on sale so great value for the money

Quality steel and product as a whole, would buy again

Handled a 7mm at 50 yards

Great targets,,,, literally bulletproof 😂😂😂

It does I fact stop .44mag so it’s all good for what I needed, but it is smaller than you’d expect it’s around the size of a medium sized ceramic ballistic plate and only has one hole unlike the photo… otherwise it’s great for $41! It’s all together 5lbs of AR500 steel and the stickers peel of if you don’t need them (no goop from stickers) ((put a lil face on mine for funsies it doesn’t come with it)).

Muy bueno, es justo lo que promete. Lo compré sobrado para el calibre que yo uso pero funciona muy bien y solo ocupa una pintada con aerosol para volverse a usar
