Description

For years, the shooting community has been searching for a low maintenance, falling target system that automatically resets and provides indisputable hit detection with a satisfying shot response and satisfactory reset time. Some manufacturers have attempted to meet these objectives by utilizing an electric motor to lift the plate. Other manufacturers try to accomplish the task by utilizing pneumatic power to reset the target. These systems require motors, gears, batteries, wiring harnesses, air lines, compressors, air tanks, etc. to reset the target. They are expensive to manufacture and require ongoing daily maintenance to keep them in service. Many cheaper systems utilize springs to reset the target plate. Shooters often complain that spring reset targets do not produce a satisfactory reaction and it is often difficult to identify successful hits. Smaller calibers will barely move the target while more powerful calibers drop the target so fast it resets itself before the shooter can recover from the recoil and get their scope back on the target to confirm the hit.

Our Extreme Reactive Targets meet all of the design objectives by utilizing a patented, maintenance free counterweight technology. Our design requires no power source, has no limitations regarding the number of resets and provides a satisfying, unmistakable response when shot.
