Performance & Training Value

The A-Zone target replicates USPSA standard center-mass sizing, while the vitals stencil creates clearly defined scoring zones for defensive shooting drills. Combined with the silhouette, this package allows for progressive accuracy training at varied distances.

Durability & Setup

Cut from 3/8" AR500 steel, these targets are rated for pistols at 10 yards and short-action rifles up to .308 Win and 6.5 Creedmoor at 100 yards. CNC laser cutting ensures consistent hardness across the strike face, unlike plasma-cut alternatives. Mounting holes accept 1/2" hardware; use Grade 5 or stronger bolts for best results. Ships unpainted.
