Steel automatic reset targets?

The auto reset steel targets are pretty expensive, only the US military can afford them.
There's a guy over at http://www.handgunhunt.com/ doing a run of 1/2" AR500 targets cheap, make your own swingers. I bought a set of 6", 8", 10" and 12" square ones for $150. Some nuts and bolts and viola, auto resets, or closer to self righting.

I have bought from these guys before: www.letargets.com they have a large assortment of steel.
http://www.lvsteeltargets.com/main.htm I have one of these and they are pretty good.
I just bought one 3'X3' two 1'X2' and three 1'X1' chunks of .5 inch AR500 steel. The cost was $550. If I would have bought the steel as a 4'X4' square it would have been $450. I do not have a easy way to cut it down so I had them do it for me. I do weld so making bases is pretty easy. For the small ones I am using rebar for the stands. They are attached to the stand with a small hook that I welded ontohttp://www.lvsteeltargets.com/main.htm I have one of these and they are pretty good.

Mike Gibson makes targets his website is: http://www.mgmtargets.com/
Mike and his son Travis are shooters, they are great guys who
make great targets that last for years!
they also travel to compete and if you want targets they can bring them with them to save you some shipping.
by no means as cheap as your buddy making some in his garage
but you get what you pay for.
