Champion Targets Shepard's Hook Champ 44100 Target Holder

The Champion Targets Shepard's Hook target holder is a purpose-built mounting system for AR500 steel targets, designed to give you a reliable, long-lasting setup that stands up to repeated gunfire. Unlike improvised chain rigs that can fail or break down, this solid steel holder pairs with any AR500 target featuring standard 1/2-inch hanging holes, so you can get your range dialed in and shoot with confidence that your gear won't let you down.

One of the best features of this target holder is the feedback it delivers. When you connect a target to the Shepard's Hook, hits produce noticeable movement—that satisfying swing that confirms your round found its mark. This real-time feedback is invaluable whether you're fine-tuning your rifle, practicing precision shooting, or just validating your point of aim. No guessing, no walking downrange to check; you see the hit and know your shot landed.

Built from solid steel in a large size, the Shepard's Hook is engineered to handle the rigors of regular shooting without wear or failure. If you're tired of dealing with chains that stretch, fray, or break under sustained fire, or if you simply want a target mounting solution that works out of the box, this holder eliminates the hassle and gives you more time behind the gun.
