Steel Zombie Targets

[crg1372]

Think we may run a few of these tip over targets through the plasma tomorrow and see how they come out. I'll let you guys know tomorrow.

Kocked out 12 pieces on the plasma. Not quite as nice and smooth as the one we cut on the laser. Gotta bring them home and use the dremel on the slots to clean them up a bit so they'll slide together. Anymore of that particular style will be done on the laser.

I went with swingers. I am too lazy to set them back up. LOL

That would be me too.

I like the idea of a head with a brain plate on a rod that spins when you hit it

Yeah, its still just an idea but a good one I think. We vaguely discussed today while we cut those pieces of those tip-over targets.

I would be interested in the tip over as well as the swinging zombies.....

Yeah I didn't figure standard 1/4 would withstand the higher powered rifles unless you step up to something like AR500 steel. Then you're talking big bucks. Did you try these with any handgun rounds? Also curious to how much you gave for them.

 

[GlockedandLoaded]

16 $ shipped havent tried my 4o yet but after this result im gonna stick to 22s

 

[crg1372]

Was that for 2 targets?

 

[GlockedandLoaded]

yes sir, which would have been a deal if'n theyd hold up to centerfire rounds

I'd think for most handgun rounds they'd probably be fine but I could be mistaken.

 

[crg1372]

Turns out that tip-over target made from standard 1/4" steel is probably only going to be good for .22 plinking from GlockedandLoaded's information. Or maybe a smaller handgun round like a .25 or maybe a .32 auto.

 

[GlockedandLoaded]

but! for .22lr it works perfect
