A Proven Size For Practical Training
A 10″ gong is large enough to see clearly at distance while still demanding solid fundamentals up close. It is a go-to plate size for practical shooting, steel challenge style stages, and mixed-distance drills.
Why SR500 Steel?
SR500 is a higher-hardness steel than AR500, engineered specifically for steel target applications. The 3/8″ SR500 strike face resists pitting, deformation, and cracking through heavy rifle and pistol round counts, helping your target stay flatter and safer over time.
Fast, Portable Setup With a 2×4
The modular base and Competition Post Top assemble in minutes and ride easily in most vehicles. Because the system uses standard 2×4 lumber, you can source posts anywhere and replace them cheaply when needed.
Perfect For
- Steel challenge style stages and competition practice
- Pistol and carbine drills with instant audible hit confirmation
- Range days where portability and quick setup matter
- Home range and private land steel setups
