Who would be interested in some of these walking targets

[Dubs Chops]

I know this is not my idea. But I am also sure he is not the first one to have made it either. Anyways If I made some of these up, Who all would be interested in a couple. Not sure on pricing yet. I will have to nest them first to see how many I can get on a sheet.

 

[samson86]

i would be in for some... when do you think you will get a price??

 

[Dubs Chops]

work is super crazy busy right now, Probabbly within a day or two.

What are they made out of? What calibers at what distances will they handle?

 

[honeybee]

I want to know what they would cost, I love the idea.

 

[Dubs Chops]

Wormy, the first run will probably handle most pistol calibers excluding the magnums and such. I will be designing these where they can be taken apart that way they can ship in plat rate box's. To handle rifle calibers I think they would be too heavy and too expensive of a steel to make them economical.

I am thinking I can do about $20-$25 Ea plus whatever the flat rate box's cost.

My only guarantee would be they could handle .22 and small pistol calibers. so you would have to test them with your own guns and use your head on what they would handle.

interested

Put me down for at least 1 and I can come pick it up if you don't mind.

 

[Wormydog1724]

I thought about putting one at 200 or 300 yards and hitting it with .223.

Thats a pretty cool little target. I'd love to use that in a match. You could require the shooter to get it to walk over a giving line or something like that.

Also that's gotta be built to take rifle! To hell with shipping we are all at USSA all the time. We can meet up. Get some AR500 and get r done.

 

[rehi]

Anything over 22lr and they would probably have to be extremely heavy
or they would roll instead of walk.

 

[jtischauser]

I dont care if they fly 10 feet it would be much more usable if you could shoot it with all calibers. It's bad enough hauling multiple guns to the range for practice. Hauling targets for every caliber sounds even more painful.

 

[Dubs Chops]

OK, but the AR500 is extremely expensive material. What thickness do you think we should use?

Whatever MGM targets uses. Brinell 500 is also difficult to weld and cut without damaging changing the heat treat on the edges I'm told. Maybe cheaper is better?

 

[Dubs Chops]

We have a submergable plasma here. So the Hardness would only change around the very edge. and my design uses no welding.

 

[steak]

if you can do it for magnum handgun and at least 223 rifle i'd be interested, depending on price of course.

 

[taymoor]

This one can handle .223

[Spiff]

That's pretty neat. I'd be down for one on a .22. Any idea if it'd handle birdshot at 10+ yards? Two of those would be awesome for shotgun practice.

 

[bsmith918]

I'm interested.

 

[dennishoddy]

I'd be interested in one to start with and maybe more?
