Can this T-Post target bundle handle rifle calibers?
Yes, the Bash Target Supply T-Post Bundle features premium 3/8" AR500 steel targets that are fully rifle-rated. It safely handles standard centerfire rifle calibers up to .308 Win and .223/5.56 at a minimum distance of 100 yards. For pistol calibers like 9mm or .45 ACP, the minimum safe distance is 10 yards. Do not use steel core, armor-piercing (AP), or green-tip ammunition, as these will damage the steel.
Does the bundle include the actual T-post?
No, the T-post itself is not included in the bundle. The kit includes the premium AR500 steel target plates and our heavy-duty T-post mounting brackets. Standard steel T-posts (commonly used for agricultural fencing) can be purchased cheaply at your local hardware, farm, or home improvement store.
How does the bracket mount to a standard agricultural T-post?
Our heavy-duty brackets are designed to slip directly over the top of any standard agricultural T-post. No tools or complex hardware are required for field setup. The bracket uses a weight-forward gravity hook to automatically angle the steel target upon impact, ensuring safe bullet deflection and splatter toward the ground. Bash Target Supply also offers a T-Post top mount that fixes your AR500 steel target at a 20 degree angle for even more deterministic bullet deflection and splatter downward.
What target plate shapes and sizes are available in this bundle?
We offer our T-Post Bundles in multiple standard configurations to fit your shooting needs. Options include our popular 12x20" Silhouette, all target plates are CNC laser-cut from certified 3/8" or 1/2” AR500 steel to preserve the structural integrity and hardness of the edges. Any size AR500 Steel target can be used with this T Post bundle.
Does this target system produce a loud sound report when hit?
Yes, our T-post mounting bracket design allows the AR500 steel plate to hang freely. Because the target is not rigidly fixed, it produces a loud, distinct metallic ring ("gong") upon impact, giving you instant, undeniable audible feedback even at long distances.
Does this T-Post bundle come with an AR500 Steel T-Post protector?
Yes, the Bash Target Supply AR500 Steel T-Post protector is a critical money and time saving element to your T-post shooting system. The protector safely deflects all calibers to the ground versus damaging your T-post.
