The WH AR500 Full Size IPSC Steel Target gives you a durable, competition-ready steel target built for serious practice. Whether you're training for IPSC matches, running drills at your club, or setting up a dedicated steel range at home, this full-size target delivers the feedback and longevity you need without the cost of replacing reactive targets every few hundred rounds. Made from hardened AR500 steel, it's engineered to handle both handgun and rifle fire, so you can work the same target across your entire arsenal.

Visibility matters when you're drilling, and the bright yellow finish cuts through shadows and variable light to keep your shots clear and your transitions sharp. At 3/8 inch thick, this target is built to absorb impacts rated up to 3000 fps velocity and 3500 foot-pounds of energy—the kind of abuse that would shred paper or even softer steel. The hardened AR500 composition resists pitting and deformation, meaning you'll get thousands of rounds downrange before wear becomes an issue. That durability translates to real economy for high-round-count shooters.

The full-size IPSC profile is the standard in competitive shooting sports, so training on the exact dimensions you'll face in matches makes every session count. Set it on a frame, hang it from a rod, or mount it to a steel backer—the robust 48-pound target stays planted under recoil and handles the demands of both static shooting and movement-based drills. This is the kind of target that earns its place at a serious range: no fuss, no nonsense, just consistent steel that works.
