Looking for some metal targets than can handle some umph at 100-500yards.

They will be getting shot by 308,270,30-06,7mm mag, 300win mag.

The smaller the target the better.
 
Get some 3/4" AR500 from JC Targets or Big Dog Steel. The 3/4" will last a while, even at 100 yards. And both those vendors are hide sponsors and a pleasure to do business with.
 
thanks for the info They will mainly only be used at distances of 300+ so they should last just didn't wanna waste money on a target thats gonna break with less than a box of 7mm hitting it.
 
If your sticking with small targets at 300+ 3/8" AR500 is plenty and you will get more reaction and it will be more audible then the 1/2"-3/4".
+1 on JC and Big Dog I have both and both produce very high quality steel targets for the money.
 
My local club has some of the JC targets hanging from 300 yards and out all are 3/8 inch plates. They have been up for couple years now and not a dint in them. Club has 400 members and stays fairly busy, I bet those plates stopped more lead in two years than an average gun owner can shoot in 20.
