Frequently Asked Questions

What size post does the Caldwell 2x4 Post Plate Hanger fit?

As the name suggests, this hanger is designed to fit a standard dimensional 2x4 lumber post. You can source 2x4 boards at any home improvement store, cut them to your preferred height, and have a ready-made target stand in minutes. No specialty hardware or proprietary stand is required.

What steel targets are compatible with this hanger?

The Caldwell 2x4 Post Plate Hanger is designed to work with Caldwell's line of steel gong and AR500 plate targets. It typically accommodates a range of target sizes — from small pistol-distance plates up to larger rifle gongs — as long as the target features a standard hanging hole or chain loop. Always verify your specific target's mounting style before purchasing.

Is this hanger safe for use with rifle calibers?

The hanger itself is made from heavy-duty steel and is built to withstand regular range use, but the safety of any steel target setup depends primarily on the target plate's rating and the distance and caliber being used. Always use AR500-rated steel targets at recommended minimum distances for your caliber, and ensure the hanger allows the plate to swing freely on impact to help disperse energy and reduce ricochet.
