    Cool thread Neckshot, sorry I have no videos of gongs getting a workout.
    I have 11 gongs on the hill all shot from one ridge, we just have two turn around two shoot the other way,
    they range from 100 yards two 1400 yards when we want to go elr we drive up the other end and the gongs are 1850 and 2200
    Have 2 6inch gongs, 3 10 inch gongs, 3 15 inch gongs and 3 30 inch gongs.
    Have recently added smaller gongs next two bigger ones at the same ranges two mix things up a bit
    6 of the gongs are 20mm biz a bit over the top, the only thing two leave the slightest dent was a hot rod 375.
    Have 4 of Neckshots hardox plates which are awesome and should of just got them from the start.
    One of Shootms mild steel gongs which despite being smashed from everything from 22 two 50 cal is still going strong.
    My hanging technique is rather simple just two warratahs and some no 8 wire only lost one warratah shot down by an unnamed forum member
    730 -1060 gongs
