Bash Target AR500 Gong Target

This six-inch round gong target is engineered from AR500 steel—a hardened, abrasion-resistant material specifically designed to withstand repeated centerfire rifle impacts. The half-inch thickness provides substantial durability for extended shooting sessions.

Key Features

  • AR500 Steel Construction: Hardened steel resists deformation and spalling
  • Six-Inch Diameter: Ideal size for precision rifle work at varied distances
  • Half-Inch Thickness: Substantial material for longevity and reliability
  • Audible Feedback: Clear ringing sound confirms solid hits
  • Minimal Splash-Back: Proper steel hardness reduces dangerous bullet fragmentation

Performance Characteristics

The gong design allows for quick target acquisition and immediate feedback. Unlike paper or reactive targets, steel gongs provide consistent performance across thousands of rounds. The audible "ping" is particularly useful for long-range shooting where visual confirmation may be difficult.

Recommended Use

Suitable for centerfire rifle cartridges at appropriate distances. Always follow safe shooting practices and maintain proper distance based on your caliber and ammunition selection. Inspect regularly for damage and replace if deformation or cracking occurs.

Setup Considerations

Requires proper mounting hardware (sold separately) and a safe backstop. Position to minimize ricochet hazards and ensure all shooters maintain safe distances.
