Birchwood Casey
The Birchwood Casey AR500 3/8" Silhouette Bear target is a precision steel shooting target built to handle serious practice and competition prep. This laser-cut bear silhouette is made from AR500 steel—a material tough enough to stop centerfire rifle rounds up to 3000 foot-pounds of energy. Whether you're zeroing before a hunt, running steel-challenge drills, or just putting rounds downrange, a quality reactive target that survives shot after shot beats flimsy cardboard every time.
AR500 steel targets deliver instant visual feedback: you see the hit, hear the ring, and keep shooting without walking downrange between strings. The bright white powder coat finish makes bullet holes pop against the target face, so you can spot your groups clearly even at distance. Precision laser-cutting ensures every target edge is smooth and burr-free—no sharp edges to catch on your hands or sling, and cleaner bullet splatter compared to roughly cut alternatives.
At 3/8" thick, this silhouette balances durability with reasonable weight and cost. It's built for centerline hits from hunting rifles, AR-platform guns, and competition rigs. The bear shape gives you a recognizable game animal profile, making it realistic practice for hunters and a natural choice for hunters-turned-competitors. Multiple mounting options mean you can hang it on a frame, clamp it to a berm, or set it up however your range setup allows.
If you shoot rifle steel targets regularly, you'll stop thinking of targets as disposable. A Birchwood Casey AR500 target absorbs dozens of rounds and comes back ready for more—a sensible investment in efficient practice.

For specific high-magnum calibers or extreme long-range setups, verify your round's energy falls within that limit.
Yes. The bear silhouette shape makes it ideal for hunters who want to practice on a target that resembles actual game. It's also popular with shooters who mix hunting and competition, since you get realistic anatomy practice with the durability and quick feedback of steel.
Yes, the white powder coat finish and bear profile are visible at distance. The bright finish creates contrast so bullet impacts stand out clearly, making it practical for extended-range shooting.
The target supports multiple mounting methods, so you can adapt it to different range setups—frame stands, berm clamps, or other standard range equipment. Check the target's edges and holes for the specific attachment points available.
