Frequently Asked Questions
What calibers is this steel target rated for?
The Birchwood Casey 10" Round Plate is made from 1/2-inch NM500 hardened steel, making it suitable for most common handgun calibers such as 9mm, .40 S&W, and .45 ACP, as well as many rifle calibers including .223/5.56 and .308/7.62. Always maintain the manufacturer-recommended minimum safe shooting distance — typically 100 yards for rifles and 25 yards for pistols — and never shoot steel-core, armor-piercing, or magnum rifle rounds at this target.
How do I hang or mount this steel target plate?
This plate features double hang holes, giving you two attachment points to hang it from a steel target stand, chain, or rebar stake. Using chain or rubber strapping is recommended to allow the plate to swing freely on impact, which helps deflect bullet fragmentation downward and extends the life of the target. Many shooters hang it at a slight forward angle for added safety.
How do I maintain the white powder-coat finish over time?
After extended use, bullet strikes will wear away the white powder-coat finish, reducing shot visibility. You can easily restore contrast by applying a fresh coat of white spray paint between range sessions. Avoid leaving the steel plate exposed to moisture for extended periods — store it in a dry location or apply a light coat of oil to prevent surface rust, which does not affect structural integrity but can be minimized with basic care.
