Caldwell Rimfire Resetting and Swinging Target Kits with Steel Frame, for Shooting Practice, Outdoors

This is a great little target for the .22lr gun or an air pistol. The air rife (CO2 in my case does not move the top target but the plink is obvious). Its perfect for the .22lr rifle and so much easier than cans that have to be set back up. Its small, but this is a great advantage if you can shoot in your back yard as long as you control where your bullets are going. By aiming down at it, your bullets go into the ground beyond it. This makes it better than sticking a target on a tree where a miss will go into who knows where. The plink and movement is satisfying too. I did not bother with the stickers. This means it is harder to see (particularly in aligning with the front sight on my Crossman, much easier on the iron site on the 22 rifle). I did not care if the stickers were on there but this does make the targets a bit harder to see is all. The shots do remove the black paint (rust would be something to watch for) , but who cares if the target is marred - its a target and I'm shooting at it. Lead projectiles tend to damage what they hit so the fact it simply makes a ding in the target is not really that big of a deal (clearly it would affect the stickers put on there so there should be no surprise or even reason to mention that the bullet or pellet is going to affect the target). It definitely stands up to .22lr and works just as it should. In fact, I had a bigger "dent" from the CO2 fired pellet than the .22lr (40gr). More than worth the money. It works well with air rifles but will ricochet more (cannot cause the top target to spin) so common sense is necessary.Its very steady for me. Do not see it being flimsy at all. Mine looked and worked exactly as pictured (sans the stickers I saw no point in putting on there).

My grandson made the team so this is perfect for him to practice at home. It is good quality

Target stand is heavy weight that it should be able to take a few hits and keep on going. It's not going to catch the target's 100% of the time as described. You just have to play with the forward angle a bit to get it to work right. The bottom targets are only about 3-4" and they are right next to each other. That's some pretty precise shooting at the recommended distance of 10 yards and the likelihood that you will hit one of the support bars is pretty high. We put this out at 50 yards for the boys to shoot at with the 22's. Worked good but 22's are not powerful enough to get the bottom targets to flip all the way over but they did swing pretty good. The top target will spin with the 22. They make a 22 target as well that works better but of course the stand is lighter weight. Giving this 4 out of 5 because it does work as described and the system is pretty heavy duty (especially for the price you pay and free shipping from Amazon) but I am taking 1 off because I think a hand gun target at 10 yards should be 5-6 inches and the bottom targets should be a little further apart. Like others have mentioned the stickers are a waste of time. They will fly off after the first hit. Bright spray paint works best.

I took this out to my girlfriend's dad's farm this weekend and we shot about 75 rounds at it of FMJ (even though it recommends hollow tip for ricochet reasons) .45ACP and 9mm from about 15-20 yards. Her father has his FFL and is a gunsmith for a living. He looked at the target and was impressed with the quality of the steel. When I told him what I paid for it he said that he's seen lower quality for double the price. He was impressed and I got some good brownie points.Pros:*Quality steel that can really take a beating.*Even the frame stood up to a few stray shots with the only sign that it had been struck being a few marks on the paint.*The two stakes sunk into wet ground like butterCons (minor ones):* The first shot blasted off half of the orange target stickers. (It looked awesome, but really the stickers are pretty worthless. I had some neon orange spray paint that I would just dust on during reloading)* The stakes have flat ends - in dry ground it might be hard to get them into the dirt.*If you are aiming between targets and firing rather quickly you run into issues going from the two lower targets to the top one because the bottom ones spin and hit the counter weight for the top target, causing it to spin as well. You need to wait a few seconds for it to settle down before firing.Overall I'm rather happy with the purchase.

Just got this target setup today, and so far I have shot about 50 .177 pellets at it. The directions indicate that you be a minimum of 75ft away from this target for safety reasons.Well, if I put this 75 feet away, I won't even be able to see it! These are small metal targets. Maybe the size of a fifty cent piece. I'm using iron sights for target practice and it would be pretty funny to even try it at that distance. I'm sitting around 45 ft and I'm able to hit them, but not with enough force to spin them. I have an old Crosman 2100 pump that I only pump up 3-4 times, so I'm not trying to put out a lot of force.I think this would work very well with a scoped .22 at the 25 yard recommended distance. If you are hitting them at that distance with those size targets, you are a very skilled marksman!Good product.### Update ###Okay, evidently I am an idiot. I had the target set up facing the wrong way. Yup, not going to flip the targets that way! So, once I turned it around it works very well. At 45 feet you still need to hit them dead on to make them flip, but that is more of a marksmen issue than a product one. These are still very small targets to hit, and I don't know if I will even get to the 75ft recommended range, but I will be happy with the closer range as well. Very nice product.
