Forged in Passion, Built for Precision: The Custom Steel Targets Story
Generations of avid hunters and shooters are the heart and bones to AR500 Steel-Targets. Time spent at the range in preparation for hunting season, competition shoots, tactile training, safety training, or just for fun is a tradition that has been passed down in our family generation after generation. When you spend countless hours at the range, it doesn’t take long to start forming opinions about the different targets that are currently available. After time, we began to notice that our conversations, while we were leaving the range, were centered more around our frustrations with the un-affordable and inferior targets we were shooting at than the guns we were shooting with.
Born from a Simple Desire:
Our story began with a shared frustration – the lack of high-quality, customizable steel targets on the market. We craved targets that could challenge our skills, withstand intense training sessions, and add a touch of excitement to our shooting routines. That’s why we decided to take matters into our own hands.
From Concept to Creation:
With a commitment to quality and innovation, we embarked on a journey to design and build the best steel targets possible. We sourced the most durable materials, experimented with different designs, and obsessed over every detail to ensure our targets were not only functional but also a pleasure to use.
With 75+ years of combined experience in fabricating, welding, and designing metal, we naturally began to tinker with alternate targets that were not on the market yet. When we had come up with a solution to one complaint we had, we would take the target out and see how it held up at the range. Over time, AR500 Steel-Targets was born, and we knew we had to have a product that would withstand shooters who were as serious about their range time as we were.
How do we guarantee that we have quality AR500 steel targets?
An integral part of our target fabricating process is the testing period. We bring out the other members of our tactical training groups and shoot at our targets with the sole purpose of trying to destroy them. Thousands of rounds hit our targets on testing day. We collect feedback from other avid shooters, and redesign the target until it can withstand the test of time and bullets. This is an essential part of designing a quality target, and the missing piece to targets that are currently on the market.

Awesome company and rock solid products.
Awesome company and rock solid products. I’ve put these targets through the wringer and they have preformed exceptionally well. Aside from the edges chipping a bit (what steel target won’t) they take everything they are rated for with no damage.
I highly recommend the dueling tree.
I highly recommend the dueling tree. It is a blast going up against your buddies seeing who can flip all the targets to your opponents side first. This helps with your speed and accuracy all while having fun doing it! The quality of their product is solid and can take a beating.
