Building awesome resetting air rifle practice targets from scraps with basic tools!

Today I'm building a new resetting target for my long range sub12 air rifle shooting.

This style of practice target is perfect for honing our skills and is incredibly simple to build from readily available scraps. Its likely a good option for airsoft too...

obviously the saw blade is completely dull and i removed any last sharp edges on the teeth. it sure looks mad and it is incredibly stout. it was surprisingly easy to rework and drilled nicely. i was expecting it to be tougher that it was. Table saw blades are easily found if you have any friendly tradesmen you should be able to find dull ones very easily.

the 30mm bore of this disc will be sub moa at 100 yards, which is the next challenge ive set myself. The reset paddle will be incredibly challenging to hit at the longer ranges. Its only 22.5 mm in diameter so will be a real challenge.

I built this with some very basic tools, just a drill and a hacksaw as well as maybe a file is about all you really need.
i will build some more advanced targets over the winter and weld up some cool stuff but this just shows you really don't need anything too fancy to make your own targets.

This style of target is perfect for hft and field target practice as well as some of the new prs / ARL based air rifle target shooting disciplines. I will be optimising one of my rigs to suit some of the prs based disciplines in some future videos

this rifle is an Air arms xti50
the scope is a falcon endura 34mm tubed ffp beast running tier1 mounts
