The guy on this site selling AR500 goes by the handle of Mcosman. It's been a few years so I'm not sure if he's still doing it.
That pic I posted is 1/2" thick mild steel.
I set up a paper target next to the plate to verify impact point.
The plate was not secured to any type of base.
I shot from behind some sheet steel and had no frags impact the shield.
Rifle fire at mild steel is bad unless the steel is at least 100 yds out and sacrificial ( one time use).
1/2" AR500 should stand up to almost any rifle fire but I'm not sure about heavy magnum rounds and how much they might dimple hard steel.
