Where's a good place to by steel targets?

Looking for AR-500, gongs and silhouettes, 1/2" thick for 300 Win Mag, fast .22s, .270 Win, etc at 100-yards +. Lots of peddlers and lots of price differences on the 'net.

My boss's birthday is next week and some of us at work have been helping him get a 100-500-yard range cleared and some concrete benches put in. I figured I'd set him up with some steel and am looking for a package deal on a small assortment. So far I've looked at half a dozen places and ar 500 target solutions has the best deals and free freight, but not sure it's the best option.

Recommendations?

There is a guy out here that does the Reno shows with very reasonable prices . He does a kit with 6 hangers , 1 10" ,2 6" ,2 4" gongs , 2 leg/cross bar fittings for 1" electric conduit for about $150 . All of that will fit in a MFRB . Ill see if I have a card still if you'd like .

there is an outfit in Montana that done the ones for our club.
I have shot our silhouettes with FMJ's from a few different rifles [30-40, 308 type rounds] and they just tip over.
they are AR-500.
damned if I can remember their name though.

I ended up buying some 1/2" ones from ar500 target solutions, we'll see how they do. I like all the extra holes they have and the price is right for package deals. Might be the place RBH mentioned....they're giving away the conduit/2x4 brackets with $100+ purchases.

Gun show sales are where I go. Avoid BIG shipping bills. Use their two wheeler to
load into the truck, too.

Yeah, I was going to post just find the closest one you can. I've picked up a few from http://www.lvsteeltargets.com/, but the guy moved up the canyon northeast of Vegas and now it's far less convenient when I'm in the area.

With y'all bein' in Texas (by gawd), my other source at Action Target is even further away for you. Glad you got it figured out though.

We'll see, they sure do look nice. Will report when I get to shoot some of them.
