Frequently asked questions

What's the effective range for this bobcat target?

AR500 steel performs reliably from 25 yards onward with most centerfire calibers. For rifles and rifle-rated handguns, 50+ yards is ideal. Always follow manufacturer distance recommendations and wear proper eye protection when shooting steel.

Can I mount this target on a standard gong stand?

The single hole accommodates standard 3/8-inch bolts and gong hangers. Verify your stand hardware matches before assembly. Ensure the mounting point distributes recoil force evenly to prevent shift or damage during shooting.
