Paper targets are great, but that can get boring after a while, even for the most dedicated shooter. Nothing is as fun as hitting steel targets, and few things are more satisfying as squeezing the trigger, the gun firing, then … wait for it …. wait for it … that sound of lead hitting steel. That’s music to the ears—like the sound of the Liberty Bell.
I’ve been to several shooting events at which I got to shoot on MGM Targets steel, and I haven’t found any other targets that are of higher quality. I’ve shot this manufacturer’s poppers, dueling trees, hex targets and my favorite, the plate rack. It’s always easy to tell an MGM target: The plates are cut as hexagons, just like MGM’s logo.
MADE TOUGH
There are a lot of great steel targets on the market, but a couple of things set MGM Targets’ products apart. First: the quality of steel. These targets use true 3/8-inch AR500 steel that’s guaranteed 495 or higher on the Brinnel scale. Second: They don’t use welds, bolts, rivets or brackets on areas affected by the shock of the impact, such as the target and post. These can crack or break, thereby damaging the target and leading to possible splatter.

It is a time-honored tradition within the firearms industry; a decades-old trend hobbling on, despite evidence contrary to its practices: A woman entering a gun store, walking onto a range or participating in an event inevitably hears some variation of the words, “That’s an awfully big gun for such a little lady!”
