ShootingTargets7 Steel Target Hangers for Gongs - Chains and Rubber Shooting Straps - Steel Target Chain Kit - Rubber Shooting Straps - Steel Targets for Shooting - Hardware for Hanging Targets

These tough straps were just what the doctor ordered! I set them up with some AR500 Gong targets, some 2x4's, and some metal brackets (to hold the stands together) but I didn't want to do chains. I had just shot some chains to pieces and made a mess and figured I'd give these a try. They were easy to work with, came with all the needed hardware and are definitely more resilient than chains. I like to shoot big target close up with the pistols, but the smaller targets are my preference from a distance to press my skills, so until I have a rifle trued up right hitting the target square on is not guaranteed. Well I was all over the place while zeroing in a few rifles recently and I hit these straps quite a few times and frankly they have held up pretty impressively. I've hit them with 5.56, 7.62, and 9mm rounds at varying speeds and distances. When I came back up to check things out I just find a few tiny holes (I could maybe push a thin-coat-hanger-wire through, if I tried hard) and if I didn't look close I wouldn't have known they'd been hit at all. The fiber in the rubber must be what does it. Regardless, I'm very happy with the purchase, and will reccommend them whenever I see chains in use from now on.

Work great easy to use

I am very impressed with this product, especially the simplicity of the design coupled with its durability. I shoot recreationally and in competitions so this hangers are perfect for the amount of shooting I do and I find the rubber straps basically self healing. I shoot 9mm, 45ACP, 5.56 and 308, and especially when shooting pistol the occasional miss is a non-issue when the hanger gets hit. I've noticed some of the reviewers rate this product very low because of complaints of chains breaking when hit. That is the fault of the chain, not this product. I suggest that those reviewers either A) use the rubber straps as shown in the product description or B) actually spend the money on quality hardened chains.

I bought a few sets of these for my gong stand, and a few other uses. Long story short, these are great, perform well. More Below.These took shots from 5.56, 9mm, JHP 10mm, x39, 54r, and an unnecessary amount of .22. They Just work.The best way to set these up is to put the cords towards the shooter, so "forward", and you'll be good for a LOT of small holes.Really, I did a week of shooting, put well over 4k rds down range in the direction of these straps, and they held up fine, I was really skeptical, planning for how I'd hold up my gongs when one inevitably broke. Fortunately not one of the 6 straps ever broke, really didn't suffer a ton of noticeable damage.

I have purchased multiple targets from them, worth every penny!

Great bundle. Easy to set up. The only negative that I can think of for this product is when threading the nylon nut 3/4 down the bolt (not even a real negative, just being lazy) . The bolt does have a 3/16 Allen key at the end of the bolt. The picture attach shows the Allen key. The other picture I attached is a plate that was shot by a 40 from about 10 - 15 yards away. The bolt head did not sustain any damage. I did not shoot the chain like the other reviewer so I cannot comment on the durability of the chain.

This is heavy duty and I have done a lot of shooting, this will hold up to all splatter and target size! Very good product!!

Good product for replacement.
