    I finally finished the last target carriers for the local gun range. The last ones I built were made out of 1/2 inch mild steel and they didn't hold up to multiple hits from .223. So, I bought some 3/8 AR500 from bobcat steel. This stuff is amazing. It took a hit from less than 15 yards and barely put a ding in it.

    I tried to drill and tap the AR500, it just giggled...

    Here's some pics...

    always good to hear when a plan comes together.

    Thanks for the kind words and let me know when you are ready for more!
