The Caldwell AR500 33% IPSC steel target is built for shooters who demand durability and consistency during competition prep and high-volume range sessions. At 33% the size of a standard IPSC silhouette, this reduced-scale target lets you stretch your effective practice distance, sharpen sight picture transitions, and train faster splits without needing a 300-yard backstop. The 3/8-inch through-hardened AR500 steel construction handles thousands of rounds reliably, so you're investing in years of repetition, not a consumable.
Steel targets reward clean hits with audible and visual feedback—instant confirmation that your shot broke the trigger correctly. The Caldwell 33% IPSC target works for precision rifle development, pistol accuracy drills, and organized competition shooting. Whether you're dialing in a load, running classifier stages, or refining splits at speed, this target performs the same way, every time. The powder-coat finish reduces glint and keeps the steel protected in the field or on the bay.
At 5.3 pounds and modest footprint (10 inches long, 6.1 inches wide), the target is easy to mount, rotate, or replace. Caldwell's design holds up to 3000 fps impact velocity and 3500 foot-pounds of impact energy—specs that cover most rifle and magnum handgun loads without chipping or spalling into unpredictable fragments. Clean, repeatable performance you can trust shot after shot.
| Material | 3/8" through-hardened AR500 steel |
| Size | 33% IPSC (10" L × 6.1" W × 0.4" D) |
| Weight | 5.3 lbs |
| Max Impact Velocity | 3000 fps |
| Max Impact Energy | 3500 ft-lbs |
| Finish | Powder coat |
The target is rated to withstand 3000 fps impact velocity and 3500 foot-pounds of impact energy. Most centerfire rifle and magnum handgun loads fall within these limits. Always verify your specific load's velocity and confirm safe shooting practices, including adequate backstop and shooter distance, before firing.
The 33% scale lets you practice IPSC shooting drills at longer distances, in smaller spaces, or with tighter precision requirements. It's ideal for competitive shooters developing distance skills, or ranges with limited depth. The smaller target also makes transitions and accuracy work more challenging, which builds sharper fundamentals.
The product is compatible with Caldwell's three hanging solutions (sold separately). Check Caldwell's mounting accessories to choose the system that fits your range setup.
AR500 steel targets are engineered to withstand thousands of rounds when shot within rated velocity and energy limits. Actual lifespan depends on caliber, distance, shot placement consistency, and maintenance. The through-hardened construction resists pitting and fragmentation, keeping the target reliable across a long service life.
