I buy those blank plastic sign sheets at Lowes, which come with an "H" shaped wire bracket. They're about 24" X 36" and about $10 or so. Extra brackets less than $2 each.
Perfect size to staple a couple of the smaller targets side by side. Plenty of room of you just print your own targets.
You can find websites with printable targets. Some are pretty fun... like tic-tac-toe targets to play with a friend.
I use paper plates or computer printed grid targets unless I get in the mood for steel.
I've made or purchased stuff like this for my personal enjoyment or for a group shoot (everybody likes the steel)
I have since discarded all the mild steel and replaced with store bough AR500.

The 12 on the right are mine.
The springs were from a dumbwaiter out of the VA hospital. The base plates were column caps from a Verizon project.
Some of the pieces came from the Penguins arena.

Another good source for springs are those used for garage doors. When they break they make for great target holders. A spot weld or two and a base plate and you're in businessI use paper plates or computer printed grid targets unless I get in the mood for steel.

Flintknapper/fellow Sport Utility Rifle enthusiasts:
Do you know who sells a "rifle resistant" 9" or so steel plate?
We can't use typical rifle rounds on any of our Action Pistol targets, but a pretty thick, or at least low-cost 6"-10" plate would be cool from 25 yards or so, in a free stance with my new VZ-58 (7.62x39).

Same here, aside from paper/cardboard targets...I like shooting on steel. Since I had access to a plasma cutter at work (some years back) I had various shapes cut out and I welded up my own.
Just a few:
