Ok so the targets I'm looking to purchase are like these around the 35:00 mark:
Are those steel? I want the "Ping!" sound. A lot of retailers say 100 yards minimum. I'm fairly certain Dave Spalding is closer than 100 yards in the video.
What kind of ammo/caliber is he using? What kind of metal do you think the bullets are? I couldn't tell. I'm guessing the fact that they fall down helps the safety factor? I mean, obviously protective eyewear is a must.
I don't know anything about steel targets. They sell them here (and other places) at a reasonable price and I was looking at the 3/8"

My friends and I mostly use 9mm handguns with some .45s every once in a while. I also have a .357 Magnum.
Help a noob out?
Maybe steel isn't what I'm looking for if I want to be within 10-15 yards. I still like that ping sound. Helps me recognize a hit.
