    Haven't had any issues at 100m. That said, for longer range I would suggest using a spring wire with a flag on it clamped to the top of the plate. When the plate is hit, the plate movement will disrupt the flag for easy identification. The plate bracket is not a tight fit on the ground stake so the top of the plate can push back 15-20mm under recoil, but the 20 deg angle causes the plate to fall forward again due to weight and center of gravity.
