    Price list for AR500 gongs

    Hello all

    I worked out a price list for these targets

    8" square 120$
    12" square 170$
    16"square 240$
    24x18 body target 325$
    shipping will be extra . I will look around and see who will give the best price(but this stuff is heavy)

    These are cut from 5/8 AR 500 . They were cut with a water jet so they will retain the temper right out to the edge . I will be shooting one tomo with my 338 LM AI at 300m so i will give an evaluation on it and post some pictures to give everyone an idea of the quality of these targets . Now before I get a whole bunch of pm's saying they are more $$ then so and so is selling them for, let me stress that they are thicker and cut on water jet which is a slow process and it costs big bucks to have them done properly.If anyone has any questions feel free to pm me or zombiegirl and we will help you out. Here is some pictures of the targets.

    I put up a video on our web site showing how well these targets work . These are moving fast only have six left . It will be a month till I get some more ready . I can take pre orders and anything custom you want done , all I will need is a detailed drawing of what your looking for . There will be some added cost due to have the program drawn up with the water jet shop

    I've been pricing out AR500 and you're right this stuff is pricey.. I'm doing about 40 baffles at 1/4" and 3/8" and it's adding up fast. Our baffles are 4'x24'

      yeah its not cheap at all , and I wish that I could have used 3/8 but all that i could source was the 5/8" , but i think that over time the added thickness will help with the longevity of the gong in keeping it straight

        The price seems reasonable - looking forward to getting my 16" this week Steve!

          Well that's just it, 5/8 is incredibly tough, that thickness is damn near tank armor... lol Your gongs will last, spend more now, save alot later...

                here is the pic of the dimples from my 338 AI cooking along at 2870 with 300gr scenars at 300m, the divot is 1/64" deep. I haven't tried them out further just yet, but I would say the little dimple would be 50% less another 100 m out

                  Not bad Steve! it would take many rounds till you would need a new plate. If we buy some land I will hit you up for a couple of these so I can shoot them with my non restricteds. As the ranges I visit don't allow steel as some people were stupid
