Im sure you posted up a pic of your little 22 plinker you use, so I had smoko at the factory today and knocked these three 22 target's up with shit lying in the scrap bin. I drilled two 5mm hole's on the bottem to bang some fence staples in when I mount them on top of fence posts.Im just using 3mm flat ill know tomorrow if that's thick enough Cant wait to have a shot at them.......they will probably fall off lol.

Hi Jasen,
I use 10mm mild steel for my 22LR targets (from 5m to 200m). It works really well - lighter targets would make hits at 200m a bit easier to spot but my 10mm ram silhouette is ok. I'll be interested to see how 3mm holds up.
If small enough it should just swing out of the way but will dent up a bit. The bigger it is the more mass to move so dents more.
3 or 4 mm hardox would be ideal for 22lr ;)
Mine is for .17hmr but it is nice and easy to check your zero. You ll enjoy them and it sure doesn't hurt all of your shooting I reckon it
Makes you expect to hit stuff. Make a couple of real small ones so it's a challenge ha ha
Nice. I'm just looking at designs to spike em into the ground.
Yea I did think 3mm was a little light but having never really used the 22 for it wasn't to sure,the beuty of these Is I can swap them out and change there sizes quite easy.Quote:

We are gonna hang them off posts all over my mates farm for uphill down hill and in between all over the place Only cos non reactive targets just do my head in !!
yea I can get my hands on loads of thin stuff ,this was just what was in our scrap bin and at arms lengt:)ill grab some tomorrow and bang some smaller ones together I think.Quote:
