Offroad Gary Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 Anyone got a gong they shoot at 1k regularly? What size is it please? I was thinking of a head/body thing supported by the shoulders so it can be used closer if necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vermincinerator Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 I have Gary, its 15" diametre 1/2" thick hot rolled steel plate which makes it pretty hard, suspended by chains from a kiddies swing frame it makes an approx. 1.5 moa target @ 1000yds. Our 1k spot has an almost year round large puddle in which we place the gong, bullet splash from the gong can be observed in the water through the scope before the clang is heard. Ian.

tisme Posted January 26, 2016 Report Share Posted January 26, 2016 On the few occasions we have land to shoot out to 1000yards we use a 6" BH targets gong. Its bigger than the F class V bull we normally practice on. Tiff of RRC fame and BH both sell IPSC targets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking of a head/body thing supported by the shoulders so it can be used closer if necessary. Gary, BH Targets do head and torso -the standard is in AR500 grade,£25 and is 10mm thick x250x160 with two suspending holes.. Round/square ones too are very good. Bruce I think will do 'custom' sizes/shapes' to challenge even a Blaser.Good stuff. gbal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
