Building A Shooting Range

[Buckarooman17]

We’re wanting to build a shooting range. We have the room to go out to probably a mile. My question is on targets and setup. We will probably start at 300 yards and go every 100 yards out to 1000. My 6.5 prc just about blows through mild steel at 400 yards. Would mild steel be okay at longer ranges and something like ar500 steel out to 500-600. I was planning on hanging them on t posts or something similar. Let me know your thoughts and recommendations.

Buy once cry once. I’d go AR500 the whole way. Overkill for your 6.5 but invariably someone will show up at some point with a 338 Lapua or something and you’ll be annoyed for the rest of time when your far targets have permanent holes in them
