Our take on the Rifle Ready AR500 33% IPSC Target

This is a static steel shooting target cut in the IPSC silhouette from AR500 steel, a through-hardened plate rated for rifle rounds. The 33% size makes it a compact practice target for handguns and rifles at closer ranges. It is a bare plate, so a stand or hanger is needed to set it up. No current price or price history was provided, so there is no recent range to compare against.

Questions and answers

What is AR500 steel?: AR500 is a through-hardened abrasion-resistant steel with roughly 500 Brinell hardness. It is the common standard for rifle-rated steel targets because it resists pitting and cratering better than mild steel.
What does 33% IPSC mean?: It is an IPSC competition silhouette scaled to about one-third size. The smaller profile is meant for closer-range practice and is lighter to carry and hang than a full-size target.
What do I need to mount it?: The plate is sold on its own, so you need a stand, hanger or chain setup. Many shooters hang it from a steel frame or a shepherd's hook stand and angle it slightly downward.
Is it safe for rifles at close range?: AR500 handles rifle rounds, but keep a safe distance and angle the plate downward so bullet splatter goes into the ground. Always wear eye and ear protection and use a proper backstop.
How far should I shoot from?: Follow the manufacturer's minimum distance for the caliber you use. As a rule, keep more distance for faster rifle rounds and less for handgun rounds, and inspect the plate for damage regularly.
Does it come with a stand or hardware?: No. The listing is for the steel plate itself, so budget for a stand, chain or hanger separately.
