    Hi all

    I recently purchased the below targets and I can't believe the durability of these things. Both the 223 and 308 do nothing more than take the paint off

    I am not in any way connect to this company, but I have been looking for and bought a lot of targets over the years and nothing comes close to these

    If you are in the market I would definitely recommend these

    I was up north this week so picked them up, bought the targets stand and 2 tins of orange paint for £90

    I'll have them at midlands tomorrow. The guy I bought them from reckons his mate shots a.338 at them with no damage, expensive shooting.....

    I saw these at the previous game fair in Birr, seemed very sturdy and they had 'examples' of targets with shots on and the damage or lack of compared to similar steel.

    I purchased a 6" gong with frame and one of the crow targets last week. They charged 11 pounds for delivery to Kildare and it arrived in 3 days..

    Thinking of buying some as well. What height is the target frame and did you need to peg it down ?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,147 ✭✭✭pm.


    Didn't need to peg it down but it's easily done there are 4 holes drilled into it, I hope to be out again tomorrow and will Tage a picture of the frame and measure it.

    I would guess about 3ft x 3ft but will give you the exact measurements the next couple of days
