AR500 is ideal steel.[/quote]
Yeah i cant be certian how hard the steel is... to me it seems like it will do the job for most any pistol ammo short of the FN's 5.7x28mm round.... but the only way to know for sure is to try it out..
Iv decided to build a frame in which the plate will sit; this should do two things for me
1) allow me to replace the steel targets if need be and
2) it will give the steel some slack to move when its hit. so if the steel isnt as hard as i would like than the give it has should help compensate... as long as im not shooting .308 or 7.62's at it i think it will be fine
