Bash Target AR500 Steel Gong Target

This six-inch round steel gong target represents a practical choice for rifle shooters who demand durability and consistent performance downrange.

Construction & Materials

AR500 Steel Construction: The target is manufactured from AR500 hardened steel, a material specifically engineered to withstand repeated impacts from centerfire rifle ammunition. This hardness rating ensures the target resists deformation and maintains its integrity through extended shooting sessions.

3/8-Inch Thickness: The substantial 3/8-inch steel plate provides the mass necessary to absorb impact energy while minimizing ricochets and splash-back hazards.

Performance Features

  • Audible Feedback: The gong design produces a distinctive ring upon impact, providing immediate confirmation of hits without requiring a trip downrange
  • Compact Size: The six-inch diameter makes this target suitable for precision rifle work at intermediate to long distances
  • Durable Design: AR500 steel resists pitting and cratering that can occur with softer steel targets

Practical Applications

This target works well for:

  • Centerfire rifle practice and marksmanship development
  • Distance shooting validation
  • Training scenarios requiring audible feedback

Mounting Considerations

Proper mounting on a sturdy frame or stand is essential. Ensure your setup can safely absorb impact forces and position the target to direct any deflected rounds safely downrange.
