    What target thickness do I need?

    Target Selection and Use Guidelines

    1/4" SR500+

    Usage: Rimfire & Non-Magnum Handguns (.22LR, 9mm, .45 ACP etc)
    Distance: 10+ yards
    Energy Rating: Up to 500 ft-lbs at impact
    Velocity Rating: Up to 3,000 fps at impact
    Note: While this is rated for centerfire pistols, I recommend bumping up to 3/8" SR500+ if it's going to be for heavy centerfire pistol use.

    3/8" SR500+

    Usage: Handguns & Rifles (magnum pistols, .223, .308, .30-06 etc)
    Distance: Handguns 10+ yards, Rifles 100+ yards
    Energy Rating: Up to 3,000 ft-lbs at impact
    Velocity Rating: Up to 3,200 fps at impact
    Note: 3/8" SR500+ is the go-to target material for 95% of shooters and what I run on my personal range. If you're thinking that this material can't handle your rifle, remember that these ratings are at the point of impact and not at your muzzle. You just need to adjust your distance so the bullet loses enough energy to be bellow these thresholds. 

    1/2" SR500+

    Usage: Magnum Rifles (.300 Win Mag, .338 Lapua etc)
    Distance: 100+ yards 
    Energy Rating: Up to 4,000 ft-lbs at impact
    Velocity Rating: Up to 3,200 fps at impact
    Note: This is the go to target material for those of you who have magnum rifles and not enough range to get the target out there very far.

    Great detail on this little squirrel plate! It’s hung in a tree so I can shoot it from my bedroom window at about 60yds. 😁

    Great target

    I'm setting up a rimfire range at my parents property. This squirrel made a great addition to it. He was out of the 1/4" so I got the 3/8". I have it setup at 145yds and it has good motion and sound when you hit it with a 22. Shipping was very fast also. Great experience overall. I will be buying more.

    Winner!

    This was a gift to my father for use with the grandkids and their 22's... The ring was a big hit and a good time was had by all, naturally encouraged to work on their aim with the instant feedback. Construction is fantastic, and clearly the squirrel can handle heavier loads! We will absolutely be purchasing additional supplies and I've told everyone I know about it!

    Gives New Life to Shooting Steel

    Was surprised these came power coated! They add great fun to shooting steel. I used them to increase the fun factor in my NRL22 matches. EVERYONE likes to shoot these! Used them at 140 yards.

    You can’t go wrong with these Rimfire Targets !!

    I have gotten a hold of a lot of Brad’s rimfire Targets and they are the Best things go ! I have purchased other targets from others (NRL -22’s) targets and they full off the stands , Brad’s are way better designed.
    Thanks to his efforts I keep coming back.

    Fun target!

    The squirrel is a great target size. It's just small enough at 100 yards to be a bit challenging for an inexperienced shooter (and maybe some more experienced shooters, too!), but if they can routinely hit it then they'll have no problem hitting the vitals of deer at the same distance.

    Love it

    Love it. Using for .22 slugs on a PCP up 980 FPS. Very nice ring to it. The eye is a cut out and just happens to be just larger than a 22 cal, So after a few zero confirmation shots on paper, I shoot for the eye. If I don't hear any ring, I call that an X. Its the prefect life sized practice target.

    Great targets, great customer service

    Had a shipping issue that was no fault of Atlas Target Works. Brad took care of it immediately and had new ones shipped out asap. The 3/8 targets ate everything we threw at them up to .308 without a scratch.

    Great squirrel

    Squirrel target arrived fairly quickly and is good quality. Unfortunately I ordered it too late to stop the squirrels from taking all my green tomatoes!

    Pink squirrel.

    I'm in the process of painting the squirrel target pink for use in a slingshot tournament. Can't wait to hear it ring out when hit with steel ammo. Very impressed with the quality. I plan on buying more targets.
    I left you a voice message about possibly being a sponsor of the slingshot tournament in the Richmond, Virginia area next year.
    Please get in contact with me if in some form or fashion that is possible. I could go into more detail. Thanks again.

    Awesome target

    I really like the detail In the target. Pair this with the ar hanging hooks and the movement is really good and set up is tool less

    Daughter loves It

    Got it to give my daughter a shape of what she wants to hunt. Fits the bill about the size of a fox squirrel.

    Painted the Target Brown to copy our resident pests....Placed it 4" above ground with some tall grass around Target...Awesome sound from hits with a 10-22 at 25-50 yards. I shot 100 rounds the first day all shots were kill hits and the painted area showed all body shots. Some misses beween 30-50 yards but that was me.

    I am very satisfied and will become a regular customer..next purchase will be the bore target for my long range rifles.

    Thank you!

    Squirrel Steel

    Quick shipment, reasonable cost. My third animal target from Atlas, they all work great. The design and balance enables this target to hang freely from one hanger. I have found that there is no better marksmanship training to prepare for a hunt than shooting at realistic and accurately sized animal targets of the game you are hunting. I use the Woodchuck, Coyote, and now the Squirrel targets from Atlas, which I have found is the best for value and quality.

    Only place I'll buy from

    I bought a Squirrel and was slightly concerned with the bolt hole placement. He reassured me that if anything happened he would make it right. Well fast forward a year or so with atleast 1000 rounds or more on that Squirrel. It developed a Crack in the bolt hole. I sent him a picture and without asking for anything other then my name he sent a brand new Squirrel in its place. If that isn't the best customer service then idk what is. I will only buy my targets from here on out and hope I can convince him to make me a custom set.

    Squirrel won’t die

    I’ve shot everything up to .308 at this dang squirrel and he just doesn’t die, and the bunny is just as tough. 😂. Both are on the T-Post hangers and have been hit many times with multiple calibers. They make great 100yrd targets shooting .22 suppressed. Hearing the hit is very satisfying. I see more Atlas targets in the future.

    Pain in the.....

    Love it. Of my gong set, its the only one I have problems hitting. Hate shooting at it. Rings great when hit, durable, hangs straight etc. Wont get much squirrel meat if I keep hitting the damn tail or missing altogether.

    Once again Brad has done super job listening to his customers requests.

    Rimfire Varmint shoots at rifle club are a blast.

    Great target. 1/4 inch target stands up to .50 cal muzzleloader with patched round ball quite nicely. I wouldn't hesitate to buy again.

    Great!

    I bought my father one for our Saturday plinking. I loved it so much I bought another squirrel for myself!

    Shipped fast

    I was wanting a target that had some kind of real life shape to plink with. I enjoy having a life size target to check the practical accuracy of different rifles. I only will use it for rimfire so I got the 1/4 inch target.
