Add some Texas flair and fun to your range with the Full Size AR500 Armadillo Target – a 100% scale life-size armadillo silhouette built for durable, reactive shooting practice. Proudly made in Central Texas by active Army service members, this unique steel target showcases veteran craftsmanship using only premium American-made materials.

Precision CNC laser-cut from military-grade 3/8" thick AR500 steel for clean edges and minimal heat-affected zones, it's engineered to handle repeated centerfire rifle and pistol impacts with that classic satisfying "ring." Hang it as a swinging gong or mount it statically using 1/2" carriage bolts (not included) with any compatible Impact Precision mount (sold separately) for versatile setups.

Ships unfinished with a soft texture and smoothly processed edges for safe handling. Designs are continually refined for ongoing improvements.

Key Features:

  • Rifle-rated AR500 steel for exceptional durability
  • Full-scale life-size armadillo silhouette – perfect for plinking or realistic varmint-style drills
  • CNC precision cutting with minimal HAZ
  • Versatile as gong or static target
  • Smooth, safe edges post-production
  • Veteran-crafted in the USA

Great for backyard sessions, hunting prep, or just enjoyable dings – this armadillo target ($125) brings personality and toughness to your steel target collection.

Caliber Rating & Recommended Distances

Our 3/8" AR500 steel targets are rifle-rated and designed for exceptional durability across a wide range of calibers. To minimize surface pitting and extend target life:

  • .223/5.56x45mm: 100+ yards
  • 6.5 Creedmoor & .308/7.62x51mm: 150+ yards
  • Magnum rifle cartridges: 300+ yards
  • .50 BMG: 500+ yards

All standard pistol calibers are safe at any distance. For magnum pistol rounds (e.g., .44 Mag, .357 Mag), use 25+ yards.

These distances are conservative guidelines for optimal condition. Real-world testing shows outstanding performance at closer distances: 5.56 FMJ at under 20 yards leaves only minor marks, while high-velocity magnums like a custom 300 RUM (245gr Berger at 3100 FPS) at 300 yards produce no pitting. We've rigorously tested dozens of cartridges with excellent results, which is why we exclusively offer 3/8" thickness – delivering proven protection without the added cost and weight of thicker steel.
