The Caldwell AR500 Plate Rack Kit (Caldwell part no. 1215375) brings competition-style reactive steel to a home range, built around three 8″-diameter plates constructed from rifle-rated 3/8″ AR500 steel that stands up to handguns and centerfire rifles alike. Caldwell includes hanging brackets and two steel 2×4 frame hubs designed to work with standard 2×4 lumber, letting a shooter build a customizable frame size rather than being locked into a fixed stand. The plates are dual-functioning, so they can be shot as falling plates or suspended and shot as static or swinging targets, and the whole system can be expanded later with a separately sold expansion kit.
