Did you know that OFTEN soft point (and hollow point ammo with lead exposed) ammunition is more devastating to steel targets than full metal jacket ammunition? ⁠
⁠
The bigger question: Do you know why that is? ⁠

⁠There is a segment of the shooting population that believes steel targets are inherently dangerous. Usually we find that this is because they have only ever experienced poorly designed systems. ⁠
⁠
Quality targets are not only incredibly safe, they add efficiency and excitement to your training. ⁠

“Steel Targets are not safe” could be a correc

“Steel Targets are not safe” could be a correct statement if used incorrectly or the wrong material/target is used.⁠
⁠
Steel targets are safe when the following is in order:⁠
⁠
1. Armored Material - Steel Targets should have AR500 (at minimum) or AR550 on the strike face so it can resist pitting which will send rounds back in the shooter’s direction.⁠
⁠
2. Forward lean - Steel Targets should have a forward lean that sends most of the frag towards the ground.⁠
⁠
3. Movement - Steel Targets should move when struck in order to allow the system to absorb more of the energy without putting more stress on the plate and it’s components⁠
⁠
4. Correct Distances - Steel Targets should be used in accordance with recommended distances/calibers from the manufacturer to avoid pre-mature failure. ⁠

The Grounder is produced with either AR550 or AR50

The Grounder is produced with either AR550 or AR500 for the target plate depending on your needs. We ultimately prefer the AR550 because it comes with a lifetime warranty (that you will most likely not have to use) and can allow for closer training. See below for more details.⁠

25 yards: Magnum Pistols⁠
