It's been great for us. I set up a small range at our home (we have several acres and a large berm) and tried this brand of target out. We mainly just use it for .22 lr which this is overkill for but it works perfectly with zero damage after thousands of rounds. My kids are in SASP and we all compete in Steel Action so these get a lot of use. Zero issues and I'd buy more if I wanted to expand the range. I did shoot some 9mm a few times and again, no damage using FMJ rounds. Review: They work great and are lots of fun - The orange looks good but after the gong is hit the powder coat just comes off. It did not cost extra so no loose right. Just FYI the powder coat does come right off. ALSO it is clear in the pic that the gong hole is square, of course this could be OK if you plan to bolt & chain them. I bought the hang n hook system, and they technically do fit in the hole but then they won't hang on the pole. I did drill them so it will work and my boy can hang them up and take them down. DRILLING that is another story, AR500 is some special stuff, none of my drill bits did doodley squat. I did use a 1/2 " carbide mason bit and managed to get 4 holes drilled but destroyed my bit. Anyway all is good now I'll probably buy a couple more but will look for a gong with the round hole NOT a Square hole, they are to tight. Thanks for the fun OH my boy was shooting 22LR at about 25 yards worked perfect. I couldn't resist so I hit them my self with my glock 23 .40 cal ding ding ding ding no dents :) ## Features - ▶ Laser-cut steel targets - We use advanced laser-cutting technology to ensure high precision, smooth surface and no burrs on the steel targets, providing you with the purest shooting experience - ▶ Neon-colored powder coating for high visibility - Our steel targets are coated with neon-colored powder, ensuring high visibility in both bright and dim environments, effectively improving your shooting accuracy and enjoyment - ▶ Made of 3/8-inch thick AR500 steel for durability - Our steel targets are made of 3/8-inch thick AR500 steel, known for its high hardness and durability.

Paint chips obviously, but your favorite spray paint will bring the visibility back. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/130282105-ar500-steel-target-for-shooting-3-8-thick-gong-silhouette](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/130282105-ar500-steel-target-for-shooting-3-8-thick-gong-silhouette) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-07*
