$20 shipping no matter how much steel you buy also. I just received a 1/2" thick 12" round, a 3/8" thick 8" round, and a 3/8" thick 3" triangle and paid $105 with shipping. My brother ordered about triple that and paid the same shipping.

My friend uses old fire hose. I guess it's near indestructible.
I have a bunch of steel plates that make excellent targets, but never came up with a good way to hang them. But, the wooden target stands and frames that I build and use with paper targets and cardboard backers are very similar to these, only beefier. I think I'm having an epiphany.....
Rebar made into a sawhorse type arrangement is best. I did the wood ones for a while but the bullet frag sticks in the wood. It can really turn your hands into something that resembles hamburger if you are not careful.
I also use Conveyer belt.
Rebar frames and fire hose for me.
Rebar frames and conveyor belt for me.
I'm sure it's been mentioned already but check out AA targets (forum industry partner) - Support local business!
So where does an unwashed peon such as I obtain conveyor belt material?
I bought 10 or so feet (4' wide) from http://www.repurposedmaterialsinc.com/ a few years ago.
The local FD may have old hoses lying around that no longer pass the tests. That's how I got mine. I have a lifetime supply from one hose.
We highly recommend conveyor belt strapping! (and not just because we sell it) It last's really well. It is almost self sealing when you shoot it. It takes a lot of abuse typically to tear one up beyond use. We sell pre cut and drilled strapping for $8 each. (Our website isn't updated with the new pricing yet.)
