I use them with all hand gun calibers including 44 mag.
I usually set them at 5. 10. 15. 20 feet.
They are a blast to shoot at.

Does anyone have any ideas on the angle of the chain and how long to make the chain for the best results?
Anyone have pictures and details on their setup?

Never done this before Rich but looks like a pretty good setup. I think I'd give it about a 12" drop on the chain welded maybe 10" apart. Will the link go thru the rebar? If so you could just run the rebar thru and then spot weld it 10" from left side to right side of chain with about 12" between steel plates depending on the distance. JMHO???
Those little aminals look kindly cute, and prolly fun to shoot!!!LOL

RICHGCOOP bud...minute I looked at the six inch round targets, i got a tad concerned about the wishbone bumps on the steel. Richocet problems?! Looks fun...but want you to stick around a while longer. Just a concerned thought.(course ...wouldn't slugs bounce straight back from flat metal)...Crap. I don't know.. looks fun to me.
I will be using the targets with 22 rimfire only and I will use the smooth side out. I will also be using them at 25 yards so I don't think I will have to worry about ricochets.

Like i said. they look like they should work great. I'm thinking let them hang down about 3" total. Should work.
Unfortunately, our club allows only paper targets at the range and they must be on the target boards. No more bowling pins or other fun targets.
We can put clay pigeons on the hill behind the 100yd target boards and those are really fun for some fun competitive shooting with handguns.

I just ordered some new hanging steel targets. One thing that seems to be important on hanging steels is to hang them at the proper angle so the steel deflects the bullets down. Looks like you are all set Rich.
