Spinning target recommendation

[fhsjrm]

I need a recommendation for a good spinning or resetting target. It needs to stand up to 7.62x39 FMJ ammo and I'd like at least two sizes of target...maybe a 6" and a 3". I've searched all over the web...Gander Mt., Cabelas etc...and I can't seem to find exactly what I'm looking for that doesn't cost $100 or more. Any suggestions?

Check this site out. Do you have a welder? Could you make your own?

Now that you mention it. I do have a friend that runs a metal fabrication shop.

Thanks for the link.

You can have your local steel yard shear out all the pieces you need, take them to your buddy to weld up and have much nicer targets for a lot less money. I'd suggest 3/4" for 7.62 x XX. Also make sure the angle of the paddle is correct to reduce throwback. I have one CAD'd up at work that I will be starting in the next few weeks hopefully.
