Nowadays, there are plethora of ways to hang Ar500 reactive targets. All the ways vary based on desired functionality, portability, type of target, type of range, and most crucial of all safety. In this blog, we have discussed some of the best methods to hang reactive targets.
Safe Distance
While safety is the primary component and fun is the secondary component. Therefore, you should have the targets at the recommended distance. It is recommended to have a direct relationship between the size of the caliber and the target's distance.
Hang Using Strong Rubber Strap Or Chain
Strong and durable rubber straps and chains work the best for hanging reactive steel targets. You can keep the rubber strap or chain on the back of your non-shooting surface to keep the entire system intact. Additionally, you can make use of the bolts on the front.
Target Angle
The angle of the target needs to be complementary to your need of absorbing the shock. Fixed reactive targets can be pitched in the downward direction into the ground for a better angle. Whereas it is advisable to hang the hanging targets straight down.
However, the best method to hang AR500 reactive targets is, to begin with, a legitimate stable mounting section like a sawhorse style, made of wood or built-up metal. If metal is utilized, attempt to keep the profile of the downrange mounting section as slender as could be expected. This way a non-calculated surface isn't an issue being affected by adjustments. Making the mount as steady as conceivable by spreading the legs out will help the entire framework from moving around. An elastic lash or chain associated safely to both the association of the mounting section and target will keep the target at the desired place.
